Mr. Stimmel concentrates his practice on personal injury, employment law, and civil and commercial litigation in New Jersey and New York. He frequently represents clients who have suffered catastrophic injuries involving the brain, spine, back, burns, and other life-altering harm. Known for his thorough preparation and determined advocacy, Mr. Stimmel approaches every case with trial readiness, pursuing accountability on behalf of injured clients, even when facing large corporations.
In addition to his personal injury practice, Mr. Stimmel represents clients in complex employment and civil disputes involving harassment, discrimination, unpaid wages, and employment agreements. His experience includes representing a managing director in a breach of contract dispute with a major Wall Street bank. His broader litigation practice also encompasses fraud and theft matters, insurance coverage disputes, and business litigation.
Notable Trial Success
In 2025, Mr. Stimmel secured a $2.2 million jury verdict on behalf of a client who sustained a traumatic brain injury in a premises liability case. During the litigation, the defendant business and its insurer characterized the matter as a “no-pay” case and offered only $50,000 during trial while attempting to place blame on the injured plaintiff. Mr. Stimmel successfully challenged those arguments at trial, resulting in a verdict in his client’s favor. He has also obtained numerous substantial settlements across a range of litigation matters.
Complex Litigation Experience
Before joining Varcadipane & Pinnisi, P.C., Mr. Stimmel practiced at several top-ranked law firms where he handled significant civil litigation matters on behalf of both plaintiffs and defendants. His experience includes involvement in litigation related to National Football League concussion claims and environmental contamination cases involving major chemical manufacturers. Throughout his career, he has represented clients ranging from individuals to large corporations in high-stakes, multi-million-dollar disputes.
Professional Recognition
Mr. Stimmel is the recipient of the George G. Campion Award for Excellence from the Brennan Vanderbilt Trial Inn of Court, part of the American Inns of Court. He has also been named a Top 40 Under 40 Civil Trial Attorney by the National Trial Lawyers, an invitation-only organization recognizing outstanding young trial lawyers across the United States.
He is also bilingual in Spanish and regularly assists Spanish-speaking clients seeking experienced legal representation.
