Dalmata, a founding partner at Dalmata, Maloy, & Burke, LLP in Schenectady, NY, has been included in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America® for Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs. This recognition, which Dalmata has received annually since 2024, underscores his commitment to representing individuals injured through the negligence of others.
The Best Lawyers in America® distinction is not awarded lightly. For more than four decades, Best Lawyers® has relied on peer-reviewed evaluations to identify the top legal talent. Each year, over 20 million confidential assessments are collected from attorneys worldwide, with the 2027 edition analyzing more than 30 million evaluations. This rigorous process ensures that recognition is earned through professional respect rather than self-promotion, with only about 5% of U.S. lawyers and 3% of lawyers globally making the list.

As a plaintiff's attorney, he has secured numerous multimillion-dollar recoveries for injury victims, helping them obtain fair compensation for their losses.

Active in the legal community, Dalmata is a member of several bar associations, including the Capital District Trial Lawyers Association and the Schenectady County Bar Association, which he has served as past president and current board member.
