About this office: Founded more than a century ago, Carmody & Torrance LLP has grown from a small family firm into a full-service firm of about 65 lawyers and 67 support staff. Our clients include businesses, utilities, governmental entities and individuals, ranging from those based in Connecticut, to regional, national and international concerns. While the world has changed dramatically over the past century, some things have remained constant. Our clients still demand the same superior work product, pragmatic approach and personal attention that they have expected since the turn of the century and that is what Carmody & Torrance still delivers. Over the decades, our clients' business needs have expanded to encompass numerous and varied areas of experience, and Carmody & Torrance has grown to meet them. We are the largest firm in western Connecticut, with offices in Waterbury, New Haven and Southbury. Our lawyers practice in over twenty-five specific areas of law, and each is skilled in multiple related areas of practice. Experience in several related legal fields fosters thinking that is "out of the box" leading to creative, innovative and solution-oriented results. It also enables us to anticipate client needs, prevent duplication of efforts and provide more effective and efficient service. Furthermore, by staffing client matters with cross-trained, experienced lawyers, we avoid the "get up to speed" costs associated with adding "specialty" lawyers, as well as heavy file staffing typical of larger firms. In addition to providing superior legal services to our clients, Carmody & Torrance prides itself on a firm culture that emphasizes collaboration and collegiality, thus creating a truly enjoyable workplace atmosphere. This excellent workplace environment, combined with the challenging, broad range of legal work that we perform, enables us to hire and retain bright, energetic and highly sought-after lawyers and support staff. It also makes Carmody & Torrance a place where people stay. The majority of our employees have been with us for over ten years. Our firm benefits from this continuity because the strong relationships and in-depth knowledge directly benefits our clients. By hiring and nurturing the best legal talent and applying client-centered principles of practice management, Carmody & Torrance provides the sophistication, knowledge and superior results of a large-city law firm while preserving personal relationships and cost effectiveness. Therefore, whether you are interested in engaging our firm or joining our firm, we have much to contribute to your goals and success.
