About Thomas
Biography
I have been practicing law since January 1985, when I began with a small civil litigation and transactions firm in the Boston suburbs. For a number of years I worked throughout the Northeast for a major corporation on the defense side in the nationwide asbestos litigation. I have also worked for a client nationwide on health care subrogation claims. Since 1994, I have had my own civil practice law firm in the Boston area. I am admitted to practice in MA, NY, WV, the US Supreme Court, the US Court of Appeals for the 1st, 2nd, 4th and Federal Circuits and US District Courts for the District of Massachusetts, Northern District of New York, Western District of New York and Southern District of West Virginia. I have served in elected and appointed positions in my town's local government since 1990. I am a graduate of Boston University and Albany Law School.
