New Partners

Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star

By Benjamin P. Michaelson

As a father of young stringed instrument students, I have heard the child’s song, “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” many, many (many) times. That song struck a new chord (pun entirely intended) with me recently. Professionally, we often think of someone as a “star” based upon their success or a perceived future success that they may be achieving.

At our firm holiday party this year I had the distinct pleasure and honor to announce who we think “they are” to three important Zangari Cohn attorneys. The principals of the firm are pleased to announce that three of our own “little stars” are taking that next step on their path of figuring out who “they are,” as Partners of the firm. Please join me in congratulating:

Kyle McClain, who practices as an employer side labor and employment attorney for public and private sector clients (with a hefty helping of witty banter), when he is not speeding down the hill coaching his ski team,

Cristina Salamone, who is the president of the Connecticut Italian American Bar Association and a litigation attorney particularly focused on commercial dispute resolution matters and on Inter Milan, a professional Italian football club, and

Anthony Sagnella, who is a trusts and estates attorney with the notable skill of being able to serenade you on the finer details of the tax code in four languages, all while playing the piano or organ,

as the newest Partners at Zangari Cohn Cuthbertson Duhl & Grello P.C.! We are thrilled to have them continue their careers here with us, and we look forward to seeing just how high their stars travel.

Congratulations Kyle, Cristina, and Anthony, we know that you will treat all of the firm’s clients as we strive to do on a daily basis, “like a diamond in the sky.”
