Others who list this employer on the register

The register gives this attorney’s employer as “Giordano Halleran & Ciesla”. We count that spelling with Giordano, Halleran & Ciesla, P.C., the name most registrants give for the firm now; the register does not say where the attorney works today.

29 other attorneys list Giordano, Halleran & Ciesla, P.C. or one of its other names as their employer on the register; 10 of them were admitted before 2002, and 26 of the 30 give an office in Red Bank, NJ. The 5 whose admission is closest to 2002, earliest first:

How to confirm it officially

For a statement of Paul Edward Minnefor’s standing, contact the Attorney Registration Unit of the NY Office of Court Administration (nycourts.gov/attorneys), or ask the Appellate Division, First Department, which admitted Paul Edward Minnefor in 2002. The register places the office outside New York, so a complaint would go to that department’s grievance committee (22 NYCRR 1240.7(a)(2)).

This page reads the register file of Sep 29, 2026, and the court system’s own search can be newer; the register shows only the current value, so a suspension that ended before the files we hold, or a censure, leaves no trace here (Appellate Division decisions are published through the court system’s Law Reporting Bureau).
