Tom McNamara
Attorney Thomas M. McNamara prides himself on representing the interests of people who are injured through no fault of their own. He and our staff at McNamara & Goodman see, hear, and value our clients and tirelessly stand up for what they deserve.
MILESTONES AND ACHIEVEMENTS
Tom received his B.A. from Southern Connecticut State College in 1975 and his law degree from Emory University School of Law in 1985. He concentrates his practice on representing injured people, with a goal of going to trial if the case doesn’t settle for an adequate amount for his client. He also represents victims of sexual abuse against the clergy and other perpetrators and has lectured on the subject for the Connecticut Bar Association and Middlesex County Bar Association.
His experience has led him to provide testimony on the benefits of full publicity and transparency in sexual abuse litigation. In a malicious prosecution claim against a plaintiff’s lawyer, he was hired as an expert witness to opine that the attorneys representing a sexual assault plaintiff had probable cause to prosecute a civil lawsuit against the defendant in the underlying case.
Outside of work, Tom is a husband and father of two who enjoys playing and writing music. He’s actively involved in Take A Veteran Fishing.
