About Stacey L.
Stacey L. Selem-Antonucci trained as a lawyer in New Jersey classrooms and state courtrooms. She earned her J.D. from Seton Hall University School of Law in 1994 after completing a B.A. in political science and nutrition at Rutgers University. Those academic years set the stage for a career that has remained anchored in trial work.
Her first legal position after law school was as a law clerk to the Honorable Florence Peskoe, J.S.C., at the Superior Court of New Jersey in Monmouth County. The clerkship in 1994 gave her early exposure to courtroom procedure and judicial decision-making. She moved into private practice the next year, joining Callan Regenstreich Koster Brady as a trial lawyer in 1995. That role placed her in front of juries and judges, where she handled contested matters and built courtroom practice skills.
By 1998 she was a senior trial lawyer at Gelfand, Selem-Antonucci, Barone. Over the next decade she advanced to partner in 2007 at a mid-size law firm in Elizabeth, New Jersey. That progression reflects steady responsibility handling civil litigation and trial preparation. She also holds a certification as a Civil Trial Lawyer from the Supreme Court of the State of New Jersey, a credential that underscores her trial credentials.
Selem-Antonucci is admitted in multiple jurisdictions, including New Jersey, New York and California. She has belonged to professional organizations for many years. She has been a member of the Richard J. Hughes Inn of Court as a Master since 1994. She joined the Monmouth County Bar Association in 1996 and the Union County Bar Association in 2000. She has been a member of the New Jersey Association for Justice since 2007 and the Million Dollar Advocates Forum since 2013. Those affiliations reflect ongoing engagement with trial practice and bar activities.
Her work history shows a steady emphasis on civil litigation and jury trials, moving from clerkship to associate trial roles to senior trial lawyer and partner. In practice she has handled the phases of litigation that shape outcomes: investigation, pleading, discovery, motion practice and trial presentation. Colleagues describe her as experienced in courtroom procedure and in handling contested cases through verdict.
She now practices under the name SELEM ANTONUCCI LAW, operating from offices that reflect her longstanding ties to New Jersey. Her current practice centers on civil trial litigation.
