Earlier this month, Garrison, Levin-Epstein, Fitzgerald & Pirrotti, P.C. attorneys Joshua Goodbaum and Amanda DeMatteis had the honor of co-moderating a question and answer session with three federal judges.

“Three Views From the Bench: Questions & Answers with Hartford’s Federal Judges” featured Judges Alfred V. Covello, Michael P. Shea, and Donna Martinez who shared insights and anecdotes from their years of presiding over federal employment cases. The three judges have served the District of Connecticut for 26, 5, and 24 years, respectively.

This annual event, which usually featured a Q&A with only one judge, had featured all three in honor of Judge Covello’s 25th year of being on the District Court in 2017.

The presentation was co-sponsored by the Connecticut Bar Association Labor and Employment Law Section and the Connecticut Employment Lawyers Association. Partner Joshua Goodbaum is the chair of the CBA Labor & Employment Law Section. Associate Amanda DeMatteis is the president of the CELA.

    Client Experiences

    You will never meet a more knowledgeable and compassionate professional than Steve Fitzgerald. My employment situation was very complex, and Attorney Fitzgerald kept me focused while remaining extremely adept and “thinking on his feet.” Should the need present itself again, I would never seek anyone else’s counsel regarding employment issues. I cannot recommend him highly enough. — J.R., New Haven, CT

    Nina Pirrotti provided outstanding legal advice and was trustworthy, dependable, and responsive. From the start, I was confident that her knowledge and experience would obtain favorable results. On a more personal note, I enjoyed working with her and her staff and felt I was included in every part of the process. The dedication, concern, and interest in me as a client was greatly appreciated, and Nina has earned my highest recommendation. — J.H., Monroe, CT

    Josh Goodbaum truly outperformed my expectations. He was calm and steadfast throughout the entire process. He is a great communicator. Together, we were able to lay out a plan that in the end, not only got myself the outcome I was hoping for, but undoubtedly saved me valuable time and money as well. I cannot thank Josh and his firm enough for coming through for me in this time of uncertainty and stress.  — D.T.

    When I go to a lawyer for advice, I am usually anxious, particularly the first meeting. Amanda DeMatteis was clear in describing my options and immediately set me at ease. Realistic assessment is important, and Amanda was clear as to how to set up the case and the direction she felt we should go. I had total confidence in her abilities and knew I was being well represented against a large corporation. More importantly, we were successful! — N.M., Haddam, CT
