Workers' Compensation and Disability Advocate | Former Queens County Prosecutor
Rob Rodgers is a former Queens County prosecutor who brings his trial experience to his work for injured and disabled workers. He graduated from New York Law School in 2013 through the evening program while working full time as a trial preparation assistant for the Queens County District Attorney's Office, where he was a member of SSEU Local 371. That union membership foreshadowed the career to come: an attorney whose work is rooted in the world of working people. Admitted to the New York bar in 2014, Mr. Rodgers served four years as an Assistant District Attorney in Queens County. In that role he built deep investigative and courtroom experience, prosecuting a wide range of felonies and misdemeanors, including forgery, assault, driving while intoxicated, and narcotics sale and possession cases, taking matters through to verdict. Trial work at that pace and volume forges a particular kind of lawyer: one who prepares thoroughly, thinks quickly on his feet, and treats every hearing as consequential. In 2017, Mr. Rodgers brought that litigation background to Miller & Caggiano, LLP, where he now advocates for injured and disabled workers in workers' compensation, Social Security Disability, and New York State retirement system matters. The transition from prosecutor to workers' advocate is a natural one for him. Both roles demand command of the record, credibility before the tribunal, and a willingness to fight for people whose futures depend on the outcome. His clients benefit from a courtroom-tested advocate who protects the benefits due to them and their families with the same rigor he once brought to the prosecution table. Mr. Rodgers is a member of the American Bar Association, the Suffolk County Bar Association, and the Nassau County Bar Association. His selection as a 2026 Top Attorney in America recognizes a practitioner who pairs genuine trial credentials with a career devoted to New York's injured workers.
