Attorney Connelly was certified as an Elder Law Attorney (CELA) by the National Elder Law Foundation (NELF) in 2008. He was only the third attorney in Rhode Island certified as CELA and is the only practicing CELA in Providence County. Lawyers who are certified as specialists have been recognized by independent professional certifying organizations as having an enhanced level of skill, as well as substantial involvement in established legal specialty areas. Certifying organizations require lawyers to demonstrate special training, experience, and knowledge to ensure that recognition as a certified specialist is meaningful and reliable.

Attorney Connelly graduated from the Quinnipiac Law School after obtaining his bachelors degree from Providence College. He is very active in the New England legal community and often speaks at public events about his experience and knowledge regarding elder law.
