Justin Blitz: How I Became a Personal Injury Attorney

How Justin Blitz Became a Personal Injury Attorney — And Why He Fights for Injury Victims Every Day

At Blitz Law Group, we often say that experience matters. But experience alone doesn’t tell the whole story — the “why” behind a lawyer’s career is just as important.

In our newest video, “How I Became a Personal Injury Attorney,” founding partner Justin Blitz shares the story of how he left the world of music contract law and found his passion in fighting for injury victims.

From Music Contracts to Personal Injury Law

After earning his law degree, Justin began his career working in the music industry, drafting and negotiating contracts for artists and labels. But it wasn’t long before he realized that his true calling was elsewhere — in the courtroom, advocating for people who had been hurt and needed a champion.

In 2003, Justin joined his father Bert Blitz’s personal injury law firm. Despite working under the mentorship of his father, he faced an uphill climb. Many of the firm’s other managing partners were skeptical of the “new kid.” They handed him a case that no one else thought was worth pursuing: a negligence claim that seemed impossible to win, with just three weeks to prepare before trial.

A Turning Point Case

Justin didn’t back down. He poured everything he had into that case — and walked away with an incredible settlement for his client.

That victory not only changed the trajectory of his career but solidified his passion for personal injury law. From that moment on, Justin committed his practice to standing up for people who are injured and too often ignored or underestimated — just like he was early in his career.

Why This Matters to You

Since that first case, Justin Blitz has built a reputation as one of New York City’s most effective and compassionate personal injury lawyers. His drive comes from personal experience: fighting for underdogs and winning tough cases others overlook.

If you or someone you love has been injured in an accident, you deserve an attorney who will fight relentlessly to get you the compensation you need to recover and move forward.

At Blitz Law Group, you don’t pay us a dime unless we win your case.
