TIMOTHY MOYNAHAN, ESQ. NAMED “BEST CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYER” BY “WATERBURY OBSERVER” NEWSPAPER
Waterbury, Southbury, Conn. – Timothy C. Moynahan, Esq., of Wolcott, named “Super Lawyer of New England and Connecticut” 2009 through 2012 by New England “Super Lawyer” magazine, will be named “Best Criminal Defense Lawyer” in the July 2014 issue of “The “Waterbury Observer” monthly newspaper. The paper’s annual “Best Of Readers’ Poll” awards are tallied from ballot entries provided by their readers. In March and April, the publication published 28,000 ballots asking their 14,000 readers to vote for their favorite businesses, restaurants and community leaders. The free publication is distributed monthly to 350 locations throughout Waterbury, Watertown, Wolcott, Naugatuck, Prospect, Middlebury, Morris, Thomaston and Litchfield, and news is posted news on their website, www.waterburyobserver.com.
“Having practiced in Waterbury for the past 27 years,” responded Moynahan to the award announcement, “I am very pleased with this recognition by local area residents. Having established my practice in Waterbury in 1964, it’s good to know my involvement, and commitment to numerous organizations in the community has been noticed by so many people in the region.”
Moynahan stated that his practice focuses on criminal defense and personal injury, and he collaborates with other area attorneys on corporate and commercial law, appellate law, employment and labor, estate and probate, family law and domestic relations, immigration, intellectual property, international law, real estate and workers’ compensation.
In February of 2014, Moynahan moved The Moynahan Law Firm to 60 North Main Street in Waterbury and expanded offices to 49 Peter Street in Southbury. “After 26 years at 141 East Main Street in Waterbury,” stated Moynahan, “my team and I moved into the beautiful, historically-significant Waterbury Savings Bank building, and established new offices in Southbury. These have been very positive changes, and now being named ‘Best Criminal Defense Lawyer’ in the Waterbury region multiplies these exciting changes and recognitions experienced in the past six months of this year.”
In May 2014, Waterbury-based Post University presented Attorney Moynahan with an Honorary Doctor of Letters Degree during the university’s commencement ceremonies.
