TIMOTHY J. FONSECA
Certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a Civil Trial Attorney
We are pleased to announce that Timothy J. Fonseca is now a partner of the firm.
Timothy J. Fonseca, Esq. has been with the firm in 2013 and became a partner at Corradino & Papa in 2019. His practice concentrates on personal injury matters of all kinds including motor vehicle, truck, premises liability, dram shop, construction, and dog bite accidents.
Mr. Fonseca became Certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a Civil Trial Attorney in 2019. He received the distinction of being on a list called “New Jersey Rising Stars” by Super Lawyers each year from 2012-2019. Since being admitted to practice law in New Jersey and New York in 2006, Mr. Fonseca gained extensive litigation and trial experience handling dozens of matters from inception through trial and the Appellate level. Mr. Fonseca’s past experience primarily focused on representing civil defendants through their insurance companies. His insurance experience gave him an insider’s perspective to the insurance industry, which often serves as an advantage when litigating and entering settlement negotiations on behalf of the plaintiffs he now represents.
Mr. Fonseca is a native of Northern New Jersey, having grown up in Passaic County. He is a 2003 graduate of Rutgers College and a 2006 graduate of Albany Law School. After law school, he spent a year clerking for Hon. Nestor F. Guzman, J.S.C. in the Passaic County Superior Court Criminal Division. He now lives with his wife, Lindsay, and their two young sons in Montville and can often be seen running along the roads training for his next marathon or road race.
