We understand how intimidating and complex the law can be, and we have the knowledge and skill to help you manage your case. Our firm consists of several teams of highly qualified attorneys, each of which focuses its efforts on a specific area of practice, including:
Residential Real Estate
While homes are bought and sold every day throughout the Fairfield County and Metro New York area, each transaction is a complex undertaking that requires many weeks or months of work by both the buyer and seller. The process of buying or selling a home can quickly become overwhelming, especially for those who are buying or selling for the first time. At Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara, LLC, our experienced lawyers handle all aspects of residential real estate deals, including purchase and sales agreements, title considerations, tax issues, and closings.
Commercial Real Estate
Commercial real estate transactions, in most cases, are complex, even for those who have bought, sold, or leased commercial property many times before. The skilled team at Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara, LLC works on behalf of buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, lenders, developers, and other parties in all types of commercial real estate matters. In addition to purchases, sales, and leases, we also handle considerations such as zoning, easements, environmental concerns, and boundary disputes, as well as all commercial landlord-tenant issues.

When disputes arise between employers and employees, it is important to seek help from an experienced employment law attorney. At Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara, LLC, we represent both employees and employers in matters related to employment discrimination, wrongful termination, wage and hour claims, contract disputes, non-compete agreements, and much more.

Personal Injury
When you are injured by the negligence or careless action of another person or entity, your life could be changed forever. Your injuries might require months or years of treatment, rehabilitation, and physical therapy, and they might result in pain that could last for the rest of your life. At Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara, LLC, we believe that if you have been hurt by another person's negligence, you deserve justice and compensation for your injuries. Our attorneys will work hard on your behalf in pursuit of maximum compensation under the law. We are not easily intimidated, and we are well-prepared to tackle negotiations and trials on your behalf. We will remain at your side as you seek the damages you deserve and need in order to put your life back together.

If you have lost a family member in an accident caused by someone else's actions or negligence, you may be entitled to collect compensation through a wrongful death action. At Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara, LLC, we understand that it is impossible to put a price on the loss that you have suffered. Our experienced lawyers will work on your family's behalf to help you recover the full damages permitted by law so that you can start to heal and move forward with your life.
Traumatic Brain Injury
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can dramatically affect a person's quality of life and, in some cases, his or her ability to function normally. If you or a loved one has suffered a TBI in any type of accident, the attorneys at Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara, LLC can help you explore your options for pursuing compensation. Damages might be available to cover medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other long-term considerations.

Every day, thousands of Americans are injured in car accidents, including many in Fairfield County and the Metro New York area. Unfortunately, injured victims do not always receive the financial compensation they deserve. At Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara, LLC, our experienced traffic accident lawyers will not be intimidated by insurance companies seeking to protect their bottom line.
