What collins gann mccloskey & barry pllc does

Collins Gann McCloskey & Barry PLLC (also doing business as Collins McCloskey Gann PLLC / CMG) is a privately held New York law firm headquartered at 138 Mineola Blvd in Mineola, Nassau County, serving clients across Nassau County, Long Island, New York City, and New York State. Founded circa 1990 as Collins, McDonald & Gann, the firm was rebranded in January 2016 after founding partner Bob McDonald was appointed to the New York State Supreme Court, adding Gerard McCloskey and David Barry as partners. The firm is organized as a New York PLLC and is owned by its four named partners — Richard D. Collins, Marc C. Gann, Gerard C. McCloskey, and David J. Barry — with Of Counsel relationships extending its bench.

The firm operates across four practice areas: criminal defense (state and federal, ranging from traffic offenses and DWI to white-collar, drug offenses, violent felonies, and homicide), personal injury (motor vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle, premises liability, workplace accidents, mesothelioma, and products liability), estate planning (asset protection, elder law, estate administration, Medicaid planning, special needs, tax, and wills/trusts, delivered in partnership with the Ansanelli Law Group), and record sealing under New York CPL § 160.59. All named partners are former Assistant District Attorneys of Nassau County, giving the firm a dual-sided perspective on prosecution and defense. A differentiated niche is founder Rick Collins's internationally recognized practice in anabolic steroids, supplements, and sports-nutrition law, where he serves as General Counsel to the International Society of Sports Nutrition and legal advisor to the International Federation of Bodybuilding.

The business model is professional services billed through three pricing structures: traditional hourly rates for criminal defense and general matters, contingency fees (percentage of recovery) for personal injury, and flat/fixed fees for estate planning. The firm uses a sales-led go-to-market with free initial consultations, client referrals, professional networks, and bar association leadership visibility as primary acquisition channels. There is no technology product, no app, and no disclosed AI tooling beyond standard legal practice management systems. The firm holds no external funding, has no parent company, and reports 1-10 employees. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.
