New Partner Graham Moller
Attorneys Graham Moller and Joseph P. Mortelliti have been elevated to Partner at Cramer & Anderson.
“I’m honored to join the ranks of the esteemed Partners at Cramer & Anderson. Our family has a long history of practicing law in Connecticut, so it’s especially gratifying to be part of a distinguished firm whose presence in western Connecticut can be traced back all the way back to the Civil War era,” Attorney Moller said. “As a Partner, I look forward to helping guide our highly experienced Personal Injury team as it continues to grow to meet the needs of our clients.”
New Partner Joseph Mortelliti
“Cramer & Anderson is a truly unique law firm with a rich history and highly respected attorneys. I am honored to work alongside such exceptional legal practitioners and staff,” Attorney Mortelliti said. “As a newly minted partner, I look forward to growing the Labor & Employment Law practice area and continuing the firm’s commitment to excellence, which has allowed it to become one of the most distinguished law offices in Connecticut.”
About Attorney Moller
Attorney Moller joined Cramer & Anderson in October 2017 as an Associate with a focus on Personal Injury and Civil Litigation. His father, Barry S. Moller, is also a Partner with the firm.
The Mollers are part of a family with a long and distinguished heritage in the law. Attorney Barry Moller’s wife and Graham Moller’s mother, Gina A. Pasquini, is a leading Connecticut attorney in family and matrimonial law and has served as Chair of the Connecticut Bar Association’s Family Law section.
The late William R. Moller, father and grandfather of Barry and Graham Moller, was one of the best trial lawyers in Connecticut. He authored the first Connecticut Practice Book, commencing in 1966, as well as teaching a bar exam review course which assisted generations of lawyers in passing the exam.
Attorney Graham Moller won a New Leaders in the Law award as part of the Connecticut Law Tribune’s 2020 Professional Excellence Awards – in part for his above-and-beyond work on a high-profile case.
Shortly before Christmas 2019, the Town of New Milford won a significant, bitterly contested lawsuit involving the demolition and remediation of a blighted industrial property.
After nearly four years of complex litigation involving hundreds of court filings, expert witnesses, 22 days of trial and complicated legal briefs, the Town was awarded a judgment in the amount of $489,372 against a demolition contractor. The Town sued Standard Demolition Services Inc. claiming it breached its $2.7 million contract to demolish and remediate the 315,000-square-foot former brass mill building. Standard countersued, but the court rejected all counts of the counterclaim, finding for the Town on each.
