I am forever grateful to Tom for his compassion, determination, and incredible legal savvy. I consider Tom to be one of the key figures guiding me through my journey of self-discovery. He allowed me to relinquish myself from feeling like a victim and championing my resolve to now view myself as a survivor. As one might think, being sexually abused by the deity both as a student and altar boy can create quite a juxtaposition in that I held my abuser to God-like status, when in fact he was the devil incarnate. In the many years, living through the abuse as a child and then living with the results of the abuse as an adult left me in constant turmoil. Tom and his team made me realize that I was not alone. They had my hand every step of the way. The end result was beyond anything I could have imagined both financially and emotionally. Tom helped me find the emotional support I needed from my peers and trained professionals, focused on my trauma as a result of the clergy sexual abuse. He was not solely focused on the Archdiocese’s paying monetarily. He was determined that there be some admittance of carelessness and guilt on their part whether it be publicly or privately. In the early days of my case Tom had them up against a wall with nowhere to go but he still pressed on. Tom felt he could take it even further and by the end he had the Archdiocese plastered permanently on that same wall not too long after. I am truly blessed and forever grateful to have met Thomas M. McNamara Esq. His experience and action particularly with these cases, is extraordinary. It’s a real thrill to watch him fight. Tom, I sincerely thank you for your commitment, compassion, determination, and sheer drive to see this through for one of the many victims of clergy sexual abuse here in the state of Connecticut.
