On January 2, 1980, I sat in my new office on an old chair at a borrowed desk and looked across at the secretary I had hired to work full time and wondered how I would have enough work to keep her busy even part time.
Since then in addition to being able to buy a new chair and desk, I've had the opportunity and pleasure to serve thousands of clients and watch Alan Barry & Associates, LLC grow to the firm it is today. Our attorneys and staff are not only great professionals, but great people as well, all dedicated to one abiding principle: represent each client zealously as a professional, compassionately as a person.

By the age of 8 I had been studying the piano for 2 years. My Russian Immigrant parents were convinced I would be the worlds next great concert pianist. By the age of 12, the piano and voice lessons were in serious conflict with baseball, football, raging hormones and rock and roll. During this time I was also learning about businesses I would be involved in for the rest of my life.
My Father was a successful real estate developer and I started working in construction for him, summers, tarring foundations, when I was 13. I also spent seemingly endless days with my mother on 7th Avenue in the Garment District as she built her widely acclaimed womens high end specialty clothing store, Sylvia Barry. My mothers Dress store was a landmark for over 30 years.
My mother was a strong, brilliant, compassionate ,sensitive, beautiful woman, and was everything a woman should be. I see so much of her in my daughter, and in me as well.
My father was the most incredible man that I shall ever know. He was self made, and never forgot his roots. Like my mother, he was universally loved and admired. He was passionate about life, and had a sweet compassionate soul. He was a man's man, while being expressive and physically affectionate and loving. Who I am as a man today is a direct reflection of him. I see him in my sons.
By age 16, I was playing drums in a band, that was the opening act in such legendary New York City venues as The Cheetah Club, and The Bitter End, and opening for the likes of Sam and Dave, and The Lovin Spoonful. That all came to end when I was given the option of continued financial support from dear Mom and Dad, or being cut off entirely if I (along with the band) signed a proffered deal with RCA records. The choice seemed obvious given the already expensive tastes I had already acquired.
After graduation from the University of Connecticut Magna Cum Laude with special distinction and double major in Political Science, it was on to Western New England School of Law where I obtained a degree of Juris Doctorate.I opened my own Law practice, Alan Barry & Associates in 1980, www.alanbarry.com and have never looked back. While in practice, I have personally developed residential, and commercial real estate.
I also built owned and operated the largest Fitness Facility in the region, which now operates as a New York Sports Club.I am proud to say that I have handled hundreds of millions of dollars in real estate transactions, and collected tens of millions of dollars for seriously injured clients.
