Biography
Michael Barasch completed his legal studies at Fordham University School of Law in 1980. Over the course of 14 years, he gained valuable experience at two prominent law firms specializing in personal injury litigation. During this time, he handled numerous cases involving individuals who had sustained serious injuries in incidents such as car accidents, construction mishaps, aviation disasters, and medical negligence. Michael found great satisfaction in securing favorable outcomes for his clients, often recovering significant financial compensation on their behalf. In 1994, he joined forces with his law school colleague, Jim McGarry, to establish the legal practice of Barasch & McGarry, P.C. Together, they have advocated for a multitude of severely injured New York City firefighters, ensuring they receive the support they deserve for both their physical trauma and safeguarding their pension rights.
