One of the founding partners of the firm, Tom currently concentrates his practice in the area of personal injury. After litigating in matrimonial law and personal injury matters for more than 25 years, Tom decided to transition exclusively into personal injury.

He is a member of the Connecticut Trial Lawyers Association and the American Association for Justice. He is also a member of the American Bar Association and the Connecticut Bar Association, along with the Waterbury Bar and Litchfield County Bar Association.

Tom decided to become an attorney while attending Holy Cross High School in Waterbury, CT. He wanted a career that involved helping people and chose to be a legal advocate at a young age, never wavering from this decision. Even today, he takes great pride and satisfaction in advocating for those that are injured and helping them through the difficult process of putting their lives back together.

He has lectured on various law topics, written articles for legal publications, and was an adjunct professor for Teikyo Post University, teaching law to night students.
