Two Fairfield County local attorneys have joined forces to better serve the legal needs of New Fairfield, Sherman and the surrounding communities.
Richard A. Smith has partnered with Christina V. DeFeo with a combined 58 years of expertise.
The firm, Smith & DeFeo, LLP will operate out of the New Fairfield office and continue to provide hands-on professional counseling, specializing in real estate, estate planning & settlement, litigation & business formations/commercial transactions.
Attorney Smith has been a member of the Connecticut Bar since 1983 and, as a member of the Federal and United States Supreme Court Bars, is licensed to practice in all State, Appellate and Federal Courts. Richard has over forty years’ experience representing clients in matters ranging from buying, selling or leasing a home or business, litigating civil disputes to handling the planning or settlement of estates. Attorney Smith also served ten years in office (2010 to 2020), in the State Legislature’s 108th District, and was a member of the powerful Judiciary Committee each year.
Attorney DeFeo received her A.B. from Colgate University in 2002 and her J.D. from Syracuse University in 2007. She is admitted to the Bar in both New York and Connecticut and operated her own firm, Cameo Legal, in Danbury representing clients in a wide range of legal matters, including estate planning, probate, litigation and commercial law.
Christina and Richard are looking forward to providing a full-service firm to handle the legal needs of the community. Their individual career focus and accomplished professional mastery complement each other to deliver an unparalleled result.
