Biography:

Attorney DeAngelis represented clients in the civil justice systems of the state and Federal courts of Connecticut, Massachusetts and New Hampshire for 19 years. His great desire to contribute to the communities that nourished him brings Attorney DeAngelis back to UConn where he takes great pride in guiding students along the paths that he once traversed a quarter of a century ago. A longstanding interest in the ongoing public policy debates regarding the proper role of the civil justice system in the regulation of business conduct has led Attroney DeAngelis to pursue graduate study of these issues as a doctoral student in the Political Science Department at UConn. Attorney DeAngelis has presented papers exploring the impact of "Tort Reform" proposals on societal interests. His article, "Social Impact of Tort Reform" will be published in the Spring 2005 edition of the Northeast Journal Of Legal Studies. Outside the classroom, Attorney DeAngelis further explores his interest in the historical interactions of the legal system with marginalized groups in society. As a Civil War living historian, he joins with other like-minded persons to re-enact the lives and times of Irish immigrants of the American Civil War era. He is also a member of a musical group that has recorded a highly acclaimed CD of authentic Civil War era music that interprets the Irish immigrant experience of this turbulent time. Attorney DeAngelis is married to Mary Ellen Galante-DeAngelis, a lecturer in the School of Family Studies. They have five children.
