About Dina
Dina Brilliant built her legal foundation at Indiana University, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in 1986, and at the Louis D. Brandeis School of Law at the University of Louisville, where she received her J.D. in 1993. Those years shaped an interest in litigation and advocacy that carried into a steady practice in the Mid-Atlantic region.
After law school, Brilliant established herself in state and federal practice across Pennsylvania and New Jersey. She is admitted to practice in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and she holds admission to the Federal District Courts for Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Over time she concentrated her work on workplace injury and compensation matters, representing clients in administrative hearings and court proceedings.
Her career includes a long association with Brilliant & Neiman, LLC, where she serves as lawyer. At that firm she handles a range of matters related to workers’ compensation. Her approach to cases is methodical. She prepares claims and defenses for hearings before workers’ compensation judges and represents clients in appeals when disputes proceed beyond the administrative level.
Brilliant holds a formal certification as a Specialist in the Practice of Workers’ Compensation Law from the Pennsylvania Bar Association’s Section on Workers’ Compensation Law, a designation authorized by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. That credential signals a concentrated practice in workers’ compensation and a familiarity with the procedural and substantive rules that govern claims in the state.
She maintains active memberships in several local and statewide bar organizations. Those include the Pennsylvania State Bar, the Philadelphia Bar Association, the Bucks County Bar Association, and the Lehigh County Bar Association. These memberships keep her connected to other practitioners and to continuing legal education offerings that address changes in workers’ compensation law and procedure.
Colleagues describe her work as grounded and consistent, with an emphasis on thoroughly preparing matters for hearing and appeal. She is comfortable in both administrative and courtroom settings, and she routinely handles the documentation and advocacy required in contested claims.
As of 2026, Dina Brilliant practices at Brilliant & Neiman, LLC, where her work centers on workers’ compensation and related matters.
