“For nearly twenty-five years, my sole focus and passion as an attorney has been helping personal injury victims.  With that experience, your case will receive the highest degree of knowledge, skill, and professionalism you deserve.  But more than a fierce advocate inside and outside of the courtroom, you can expect a compassionate and attentive guide to help you navigate the often complex world of litigation.  After a life changing injury, the least of your worries should be fighting with an insurance company.” 

 Originally from the Syracuse area, Attorney Andrew Fanizzi completed his undergraduate degree at Ithaca College. He moved Western New York to attend law school at the University Of Buffalo, where he received his law degree in 1999.  During law school, Mr. Fanizzi was active in moot court and was awarded the Robert J. Connelly Award for excellence in trial advocacy.  After moving to Western New York in 1996, Mr. Fanizzi fell in love with the region and has resided here since. 

 Mr. Fanizzi is a founding partner of Fanizzi & Barr, which he opened with his longtime friend and classmate, Paul Barr, in 2010.

 Mr. Fanizzi has exclusively represented personal injury victims since his admission to the New York State Bar in 2000.  He is admitted in all New York State Courts, including federal courts in the Western and Northern Districts of New York.  He has tried cases to verdict throughout the counties of Western New York and has obtained millions of dollars in compensation for his clients throughout his career.

 Mr. Fanizzi is an active member of the Erie County Bar Association, Niagara County Bar Association, Western New York Trial Lawyers Association and the New York State Academy Of Trial Lawyers.
