Andrea Bonina began her legal
career in 1992 by joining the law firm founded
by her father, John Anthony Bonina. From that
time to the present her practice has
concentrated almost exclusively on significant
plaintiff’s personal injury cases. In 1995 she
became partner in the firm, Bonina and Bonina,
P.C., which she and her brother remain partners
in today. Andrea is the managing partner of the
firm, which handles medical malpractice, product
liability, and other complex personal injury
litigation.
Ms. Bonina is
a frequent lecturer on litigation and practice
management topics for mandatory continuing legal
education. She is the chair of the Brooklyn Bar
Association Technology Committee and has
presented lectures on Website Ethics to multiple
bar associations throughout the state. She
obtained an “AV” rating from Martindale Hubbell,
which is the highest rating for skills and
ethics, and has been featured in the New York
Times “Super Lawyers” section since 2007 as one
of the finest plaintiff’s product liability
litigators in New York.

Ms. Bonina recently
concluded her term as the President of the 2,200
member Brooklyn Bar Association. She is a past
president of the Bay Ridge Lawyers Association,
and from 2006 to 2009 Ms. Bonina served on the
Board of Directors of the New York State Trial
Lawyers Academy.
Her decision to practice law is an outgrowth
of her commitment to helping others. As Co-Chair
of an annual fund-raising drive for St. Jude
Children's Hospital from 1992 through 2006,
Andrea raised hundreds of thousands of dollars
for children stricken with catastrophic
diseases. Ms. Bonina is also a founder and
co-chair of the annual Liz Padilla Memorial 5K
race to benefit the Brooklyn Bar Association’s
Volunteer Lawyer Project. The race raises money
to provide pro bono legal services and programs
to needy Brooklyn residents.
Her charitable work resulted in her being
given the "Woman of Valor Award" by the
Institute of Jewish Humanities in 1997. Ms
Bonina also received the Hon. William T. Bellard
award in 2007 from the Catholic Lawyers Guild of
Kings County.
