Description | Attorney Sandi B. Girolamo practices divorce and family law with Attorneys James T. Flaherty, Pamela Magnano, Stephen Sinatro, and Heather Perbeck at Flaherty Legal Group, LLC in West Hartford, CT. Attorney Girolamo has appeared and argued in both the Superior Court and the Connecticut Appellate Court and tried numerous family law cases, including at the Regional Family Trial Docket. She has several published decisions from the Connecticut Appellate Court and the Connecticut Supreme Court. Attorney Girolamo and the innovative and determined trial lawyers of Flaherty Legal Group, LLC explore every opportunity for mediated settlement. Attorney Girolamo represents clients in family law matters that include divorce, custody, child and spousal support, and post judgment modification and enforcement issues. Her trial experience includes a six-day post judgment custody trial at the Regional Family Trial Docket and a nine-day dissolution of marriage trial in the Hartford Superior Court. One Judge commented at the end of a trial that Attorney Girolamo ‘exhibited the very best in family lawyers. She presented her case and examined witnesses in a way consistent with the rules of evidence, in a logical manner, and in a way that I think all family lawyers should emulate, and that is vigorously defending her client’s rights but not becoming so emotionally involved in the case that you lost sight of the ultimate goal.’ In addition to appearing in the Superior Court arguing and trying family cases, Attorney Girolamo has appeared and argued several cases before the Connecticut Appellate Court. She has written briefs and motions for both the Connecticut Appellate Court and the Connecticut State Supreme Court. Attorney Girolamo believes that not every case should be tried and that a settlement usually better serves the client’s needs and interests. Therefore, she also participates in mediations to resolve her cases. She has served as a mediator for couples seeking an amicable resolution to their pending divorce. Attorney Girolamo serves as a Special Master for the New Britain Superior Court, Tolland Superior Court and the Hartford Superior Court. Attorney Girolamo has been named in Connecticut Super Lawyers in every year since 2011.

Also in 2010, the Officers of the Family Law Section of the Connecticut Bar Association selected Attorney Girolamo as one of five Rising Stars in Connecticut Family Law. Attorney Girolamo graduated in 1993 with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and English from the University of Connecticut. In 1998, Attorney Girolamo began attending Quinnipiac University’s Law School at night while working full-time as a paralegal for O’Connell, Flaherty & Attmore. In 2001, Attorney Girolamo received her Juris Doctor, summa cum laude, ranked second in the evening class and in the top 10% of the entire graduating class. While in law school, Attorney Girolamo also received the American Jurisprudence award in Workers’ Compensation. Attorney Girolamo is admitted to practice in Connecticut State Courts and the United States District Court, District of Connecticut.
