Ansell.Law is pleased to announce the appointment of three new Practice Group leaders effective immediately. Partner Barry M. Capp leads the Labor & Employment group, Shareholder Anthony J. D’Artiglio heads the Bankruptcy group, and Associate Kelsey M. Barber assumes leadership of the Controlled Substances and Regulatory Law group.
As client demand for these practice areas has continued to grow, the Firm selected three leaders with significant capabilities and experience. These new roles further enhance the Firm’s commitment to nurturing talent from within.
Capp, a skilled litigator with over 25 years of experience, devotes his practice to labor, employment, construction, and complex commercial matters. Licensed in New York, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia, he has extensive experience in state and federal courts. Several published decisions Capp achieved throughout his career involve novel and noteworthy legal issues.
D’Artiglio has served as Litigation Team Leader for North New Jersey since 2023 and became a Shareholder on January 1, 2025. Licensed in New York and New Jersey, his practice encompasses bankruptcy, commercial litigation, controlled substances and regulatory law, and labor and employment. D’Artiglio assumes the group’s leadership from James Aaron, who led the practice successfully for many years and is now a Shareholder Emeritus.
Barber developed a deep understanding of the complexities surrounding the production, sale, use, regulation, and legalization of controlled substances as demand grew in this emerging area of law. She routinely helps clients understand their rights and opportunities and helps them navigate the complex regulations governing these substances to secure cannabis licenses in New Jersey and New York. Barber also enjoys a diverse practice, including civil and business litigation, contract law, and appellate matters.
