John R.

In addition to being licensed to practice law in the State of New York, he is admitted in the Federal Eastern and Southern Districts of New York.

John brings a plethora of governmental and private sector experience to the office, including his most recent position as the Nassau County Chief Deputy County Clerk. In that roll, John oversaw over 100 staff members with a $6 million budget and annual revenue collection exceeding $240 million dollars for federal, state, and local governments. John served as liaison to the New York State Land Title Association and assisted in drafting legislation to waive clerk recording fees for victims of Super Storm Sandy.

In November 2016, John was appointed by the Hempstead Town Board to the Hempstead Industrial Development Agency, where he proposed and successfully lobbied for procedural changes to ensure additional transparency and tax savings for the residents of the Town of Hempstead.

John currently practices law as an associate trial attorney with the 45-year-old Mineola based law firm Nicolini, Paradise, Ferretti & Sabella where he specializes in bodily injury, subrogation, no-fault, real estate, zoning and land use law.
