Chris Romanelli

It is a privilege to represent the clients I represent. The list of representative professions of people I have had the privilege to represent in successful asbestos cases is varied.  It ranges from professions historically associated with asbestos exposure such as Armed Forces service members who protect our country, construction workers who helped build our city, as well as utility workers, police officers and firefighters who keep our city safe to professions with less common exposures, such as dentists, artists, bakery workers, stage actors and musicians.

Christopher A. Romanelli is an associate attorney in our Asbestos Litigation group. He handles cases where work- or home-exposure to asbestos caused mesothelioma, lung cancer or asbestosis decades later. Mr. Romanelli is admitted to practice law in New York and New Jersey, and in U.S. District Court (New York Southern and Eastern districts).

Mr. Romanelli — born and raised in New York — obtained a juris doctor degree from Fordham University School of Law in 1997. During his instruction there, he served as a staff writer and, later, as an editor of the Fordham Intellectual Property, Media and Entertainment Law Journal. In his final year at Fordham University, he was a teaching assistant who helped other students master legal writing. Mr. Romanelli earned a bachelor of arts degree from The City University of New York, Brooklyn College.
