Mary Ellen O'Connor
Championing Your Rights: Empowering Workers and Individuals with Disabilities.
Mary Ellen O'Connor is deeply committed to justice and passionate about advocating for what’s right. As the founder of O’Connor Law PLLC, she focuses on helping Bronx residents secure the benefits they need to support their families.
Mary Ellen's journey began with a BS from SUNY Albany and an MS from the College of Mount St. Vincent. She started her career teaching K-2, where she saw many students with learning disabilities struggle to get the services they needed. This inspired her to earn a law degree from CUNY School of Law, intending to advocate for children with special needs. However, her focus shifted to workers’ compensation law, where she found her true calling in assisting injured and disabled workers in navigating the legal system.
Mary Ellen’s dedication to workers' rights is deeply personal. While in law school, her husband suffered a severe on-the-job injury, leaving their family without income for six months. This firsthand experience with the workers’ compensation system fuels her commitment to her clients. She understands the anxiety and uncertainty they face and strives to provide clear support from the first consultation.
Before founding her practice in 2009, Mary Ellen trained new attorneys and lectured extensively. She is highly regarded for her expertise in workers’ compensation law and her dedication to her clients. Mary Ellen serves on the Board of Directors for the Injured Workers Bar Association and the Workers’ Compensation Alliance, continually seeking new strategies to advocate effectively for her clients.
