Tom Barron has been practicing in South Jersey for 35 years with the goal of providing a high level of skill and experience as trial lawyer and litigator to South Jersey’s growing business, professional and insurance communities.
A member of the bar since 1975, Tom was a shareholder at Parker, McCay and Criscuolo, P.C.a partner at Ferg, Barron & Gillespie and at Barron & Posternock, LLP before forming his present firm. He was a law clerk to the Hon. J. Gilbert Van Sciver, Jr. of the Superior Court in Mt. Holly and was an assistant Burlington County Prosecutor, where he tried 25 felony cases in less than two years. His current practice is almost exclusively litigation based and he handles a wide variety of cases for individuals, businesses, insurance carriers and insureds.
He has litigated and tried cases involving professional negligence, the bad faith denial of claims, consumer and business fraud, intellectual property and restrictive covenants, civil rights, employment discrimination, environmental hazards, commercial disputes, business torts and probate matters. Additionally, he has extensive experience in insurance coverage litigation, automobile and trucking accident litigation, product liability matters, and defective construction and maintenance claims. Finally, he represents lawyers and other professionals in disciplinary and licensure matters and law enforcement officers in disciplinary, labor and civil liability matters.
Because of his experience in many areas of trial practice, Tom has developed a reputation as a lawyer who can successfully handle cases involving unusual or complex issues, often on short notice. He believes that it is important to quickly develop a case strategy based upon realistic client goals and aimed at the opposition’s weaknesses with the aim of reducing the length and cost of litigation.
