Mary Theresa Colwell

Mary T. Colwell (nee Pasqualino) graduated from Albany Law School of University in Albany, New York in 2001 with a concentration in Criminal Law. While at Albany Law School, Mary was a member of the Moot Court Board, the Women's Law Caucus and Vice-President of the Italian-American Law Students Association. Ms. Colwell was admitted to the New Jersey State bar in December 2001 and the New York State bar in January 2002. She is also admitted in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey and the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York. In May 2005, Ms. Colwell was selected for admission to the United States Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. Ms. Colwell worked for the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office in the Motions and Appeals Bureau, where she acquired prosecutorial experience, upon graduation. She remained in New Jersey for one year, gaining invaluable general practice experience at Hobbie, Corrigan, Bertuccio & Taschy. However, her desire to work in Albany, where she was born and raised, led her to the Law Offices of Alice K. Berke, P.C. in 2003, where she concentrated her practice in Matrimonial/Family Law. Ms. Colwell joined her husband, Kevin, at The Colwell Law Group, LLC in September 2008 and is currently a member of the New York State Bar Association and the Capital District Women's Bar Association. Mary continues to concentrate her practice in Matrimonial/Family Law. However, she is well versed in many general practice areas.
