Barry Kamins named partner at new law firm
The Brooklyn Daily Eagle has learned that Kings County Supreme Court Justice Barry Kamins will be a named partner in the newly formed firm Aidala, Bertuna & Kamins, P.C. Originally Aidala & Bertuna, the Brooklyn-based criminal defense firm plans to expand into personal injury cases as well as commercial and civil litigation.
It is being reported that Kamins will primarily deal with attorney disciplinary matters and appellate criminal defense cases. Kamins retired from the bench in December after a report by the NYC Department of Investigations accused the former judge of improperly advising former-Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes during his re-election campaign, in violation of judicial ethics.
Any probe into Kamins’ alleged wrongdoing or misguided actions ended upon his retirement.
