President’s Profile: Daniel R. Antonelli
As we head into September, the Brooklyn Bar Association is preparing for an exciting year of programming, professional development, networking and opportunities to bring Brooklyn’s legal community closer together.
At the center of that work is BBA President Daniel R. Antonelli, who was formally installed as the Association’s president on June 9, 2026.
A trust and estates attorney and managing partner of Antonelli & Antonelli, Dan has built his career helping individuals and families navigate some of life’s most complicated legal and personal circumstances. That experience has shaped a leadership philosophy centered on listening, finding common ground and understanding what people and institutions need in order to move forward.
Since taking office, Dan has spent the summer working to prepare the Association for the year ahead. His vision is focused on strengthening the BBA community, supporting attorneys and the judiciary, expanding opportunities for members, attracting the next generation of Brooklyn lawyers and ensuring that the Association remains a vibrant and meaningful part of Brooklyn’s legal community.
September represents the next stage of that work.
There is a full year ahead, with new programs, events, CLE opportunities, member engagement and initiatives designed to strengthen the connections that make the Brooklyn Bar Association special.
Dan has made clear that this year is about more than one presidency. It is about building an Association positioned to serve its members and Brooklyn’s legal community well into the future.
We are looking forward to what is ahead.
