John W. Looney

Attorney John Looney works at Cellino & Barnes PC. His area of practice Auto Accidents, Dog Bites, Drunk Driving Accidents, Serious Injuries, Slip & Fall Injury Accident, Wrongful Death.

I have built my career on a strong foundation of hard work, dedication to client service and achievement of results. Upon graduation from Norwich University, a private military college in Vermont, I was commissioned an officer in the United States Navy. I served our country in this capacity for six years on active duty and fourteen years in the reserves.

Since joining Cellino & Barnes, I have completely dedicated myself to the success of our firm and our clients. Because I believe that client service is one of the most important factors separating our firm from the others, I commit myself and all of my energies to every case I try. My personal strength is an inner drive and motivation to do right by the people who count the most: the clients I have been asked to serve.

I have 100 percent job satisfaction because I am part of a legal team that shares a common goal. We believe every injured person deserves the utmost care and professionalism in achieving a fair resolution to his or her case.

No matter the magnitude of the injury, I treat every person I represent with dignity and respect. This type of treatment will not be forthcoming from the insurance companies, so I make it a hallmark of my service.
