I moved back to my hometown in Albany after graduating from Notre Dame Law School. During my first dozen or so years, I was fortunate enough to have been taught how to defend medical malpractice and general tort cases by two legends im the field of defense - James Carter, Esq. and James Conboy, Esq. In 1994, my brother, Michael Jude O'Connor and I founded O'Connor, O'Connor, Bresee & First, P.C. along with Dennis First and Dianne Bresee. Over the past 30 years, I have tried upwards of 100 cases to verdict throughout all of New York State in both State and Federal Court. My practice areas include medical and professional malpractice, motor vehicle/trucking, New York State Labor Law, premises liability and commerical litigation. My overriding goal has always been to obtain the best possible result for my clients in an ethical and professional manner.
