Biography

When clients select The Barnes Firm to represent them in their personal injury cases, they have the right to expect an attorney who has extensive trial experience, as well as experience in dealing with insurance company representatives.

As a senior trial attorney for a Fortune 500 property and casualty insurance company, I learned the inner workings of the insurance business, and how that industry accesses and resolves liability claims. This experience is particularly crucial in the evaluation and preparation of each case I handle.

I was selected to lecture judges who attend the New York State Magistrate’s training course, as well as lecturing fellow attorneys on continuing legal education through the Bar Association of Erie County’s Negligence Committee. As a result, I have been recognized as a leader in civil trials and legal jurisprudence.

I have worked closely with Steve & Rich Barnes throughout my legal career, and our team approach at The Barnes Firm insures maximum results for our clients, and the highest success for our firm. Keeping in mind our responsibility to be our clients’ guide and protector in the legal process, we are available from the onset to the conclusion of each case to address each client’s particular needs or questions.
