Dennis M. Donnelly Joins Snyder Sarno D'Aniello Maceri & da Costa LLC

February 21, 2023 (ROSELAND, NJ) – Snyder Sarno D’Aniello Maceri & da Costa LLC is pleased to announce that Dennis M. Donnelly has joined the firm’s Medical Malpractice and Personal Injury practice groups as Of Counsel. While Dennis will also complete the trial of several complex medical malpractice cases already filed  by the Donnelly law firm he is also joining us Of Counsel.

“We are very pleased to launch into a new year with Dennis on our personal injury and medical  malpractice teams. He is a formidable force, known nationally in the plaintiffs bar for his track record of outstanding results for clients, and I look forward to working with him,” said Paul M. da Costa, partner and head of the firm’s Medical Malpractice practice group. “Our clients will undoubtedly benefit from his talents, trial strategies, and unwavering determination.”

A New Jersey personal injury attorney with nearly four decades of experience, Donnelly regularly tries complex cases to outstanding verdicts in two areas of special interest: medical malpractice and unsafe, dangerous products. Over the course of his years in practice, he has earned numerous million- and multimillion-dollar results on behalf of clients who were severely injured due to the negligence of another person, company, or entity. Donnelly’s innovative trial strategies have been cited in some of the leading textbooks on trial practice.

Additionally, he has lectured to doctors and attorneys nationally and internationally about electronic medical records, safe medical care, and the use of the internet and computer presentations to expose negligent care and negligent practices. He has helped hundreds of other plaintiffs’ attorneys prove substandard medical care as well as defects in car design.

“Dennis is well known for his repertoire of legal knowledge, litigation successes, and astute advocacy in the areas of medical malpractice and personal injury. It is an honor to have him join our firm,” said Angelo Sarno, Founder and Managing Partner of the firm.

In recognition of Donnelly’s notable “contribution to the plaintiffs bar, superior trial attorney skills, respect from his peers and members of the bench, and a gentleman practitioner who gives back to the practice,” he was recently awarded the inaugural Jack Wurgraft Award from the Northern New Jersey chapter of the American Board of Trial Attorneys. He is annually selected for inclusion in the New Jersey Super Lawyers® list in the fields of personal injury, medical malpractice, and product liability. He has also been named a Best Lawyers® “Lawyer of the Year” three times.

Donnelly is a distinguished Board of Directors member and past president of the Inner Circle of Advocates, an organization described in June 2000 by The Washington Post as “a select group of 100 of the nation's most celebrated trial lawyers.” Membership is determined through a rigorous invitation-only process, in which experience, reputation, judicial references, and peer evaluations are reviewed and assessed.

He is a past president of the Northern New Jersey chapter of the American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA). He has also served on the Board of Directors of the Attorneys Information Exchange Group, the only national association of lawyers who share information and strategy to successfully hold car manufacturers accountable for unsafe designs that kill and injure motorists every year.
