A seasoned trial lawyer who has served clients throughout New York for more than 30 years, Al tries — and wins — cases against the most experienced and respected plaintiffs’ attorneys in the state.

After working as in-house counsel to a real estate development company for 9 years, where I gained invaluable experience in residential and commercial real estate transactions as well as landlord-tenant matters, I have started my own practice in order to work with and help a broader range of people with their real estate needs.

After my experiences at some large firms, I've come to deeply believe in the importance of individual relationships between lawyers and clients.  Getting to know you and your unique circumstances will enable me to provide you with the personalized service that suits your particular case or legal need.. When I'm not working on my clients' needs, you'll most likely find me on a bike or in a kayak.  I'm a big believer in extreme achievements and in doing things that others find intimidating or impossible, like expedition adventure races and steep whitewater descents.  I live by two simple mottos: always move forward, and conquer fear.  Those key lessons got me through law school as well as my service in the US Navy and countless adventures and obstacles small and large.. In law school, I studied as diverse a range of topics as I could get my hands on.  Today, I apply all of that knowledge and my nine years of experience in Social Security to giving my clients the individual service and attention they deserve and working toward getting each client the best possible outcome.

Accidents and their resulting injuries often have far reaching implications in the lives of our clients and their families. My practice focuses on compensating victims of someones negligence. Often this task requires going to court and fighting for a just and fair result. I have spent my career in the courts; I welcome the opportunity to handle your case.

A resilient spirit; the courage to go on in the face of adversity; a commitment to healing when misfortune strikes; the strength to endure when another’s negligence disrupts a life or the lives of an entire family. These are some of the attributes Ellen Sturm finds in the clients she is privileged to represent as an attorney at Cellino & Barnes. Each and every day, she is impressed by the fortitude and goodness of the hardworking people who entrust her to handle their cases. She takes very seriously my commitment to do absolutely the best job that she can for them.

A proud Senior Trial Attorney at Cellino & Barnes, Daniel Caffrey represents personal injury clients, and says it is a responsibility to be taken very seriously. He prides himself on open and honest communication with his clients. Countless times he has represented people who do not believe they are receiving a fair shake from an insurance company, sometimes even their own insurance company. Unfortunately, while insurance companies never have an issue collecting your insurance premiums, they often have an issue resolving your claim.
