Her practice includes premises liability, motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, civil rights claims, and municipal liability.

Borden earned a J.D., magna cum laude, from New York Law School in 2005 and graduated cum laude from Gettysburg College in 2002. She was admitted to the New York bar in 2006. Her legal education and trial background support a practice that requires examination of evidence, careful preparation, and direct presentation of claims involving disputed responsibility and serious personal injuries.

Her work draws on experience with litigation from different sides of civil disputes. Borden has represented injured people in cases involving unsafe premises, collisions, medical care, and government-related claims. She approaches matters with trial preparation in mind, even when settlement remains possible. This allows her to address medical proof, contested liability, and the financial and personal effects of an injury throughout the litigation process.

Andrea V. Borden serves on the board of the New York State Trial Lawyers Association. Her professional recognition includes selection to Super Lawyers and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch.
