Timonthy Moynanhan and Martin Minella practiced law together for three decades years in Waterbury, forming a formidable practice known for its work in criminal defense as well as other practice areas. Now they’re adversaries in a civil suit, as Moynahan has accused his former colleague of taking client files when the pair split up two years ago.
Minella says he’s shocked by the lawsuit, which makes breach of contract and unfair trade practice claims. He describes Timothy Moynahan as a mentor, someone who was “like a brother to him.”

“If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t be a lawyer,” Minnella said. “I characterize it as mind-boggling,” he said of the suit filed in Waterbury Superior Court. “I don’t understand it; it’s absolutely out of character.”
