About
Since 2007, I have authored and published the Connecticut Employment Law Blog. Thanks for visiting.
Since you've clicked the "About" button, I'm sure you're hoping to learn more a little more about the blog and me. My lawfirm, Pullman & Comley LLC has a detailed biography which you can review here.
I work at Pullman & Comley as a member with my primary office in Hartford, Connecticut. However, I do legal work all across the state including the Stamford, Bridgeport, and New Haven areas. My practice includes representing and counseling employers on labor and employment law through practical considerations and application of the law. I also work on commercial litigation and other types of litigation matters, though you won't hear me discuss those issues much on this blog.
This blog discusses new and noteworthy developments in employment law in Connecticut. Over the last two years, it's become a place where those items are discussed, debated and explored. While we've had over 500,000 views of the blog since its inception, your involvement in the blog through suggestions, comments, criticisms and praises remains crucial to its long-term success.

I am a law graduate of Washington University in St. Louis School of Law where I was honored with the "Order of the Coif". I received my bachelor's degree from the University of Pennsylvania. While there, I served as an editor for the award-winning daily newspaper, The Daily Pennsylvanian.
The Connecticut Law Tribune ran this profile in 2007 as well.
