About Andrew J.
Andrew J. Bellwoar began his legal path in classrooms far from the Pennsylvania courthouses where he now practices. He graduated from Georgetown University in 1984 and earned his J.D. from Villanova University School of Law in 1988. Those credentials set the stage for a steady career in private practice and involvement with local government circles.
After law school he spent the early part of his career building experience at established firms. In 1992 he joined Holsten & White as an associate. Six years later he advanced to partnership at Siand, Bellwoar & McAndrew LLP, a move that shifted him into firm leadership and higher-profile client work. In 2020 he became a partner at Bellwoar Kelly, LLP, where he remains active today.
Bellwoar’s professional life has been rooted in Pennsylvania. He is admitted to practice in that jurisdiction and has maintained ties to local governance through professional associations. He holds membership in the Pennsylvania State Association of Township Officials, a connection that reflects ongoing engagement with municipal issues and the networks that surround them.
Colleagues describe a lawyer who prefers steady work over headline-grabbing cases. His resume shows long tenures at private firms and steady progression from associate to partner. Those moves suggest a lawyer comfortable with both casework and the management responsibilities that come with partnership. The record shows long-term client relationships and continuity of service rather than frequent lateral moves.
At Bellwoar Kelly, LLP, he works alongside other partners and staff across multiple office locations listed under the firm name. Public records list the firm as his current professional home. His practice continues to be conducted in Pennsylvania, where he handles matters brought to him by clients in the state.
Outside the office he has remained involved in circles connected to municipal governance through his association membership. That engagement complements his firm work and keeps him connected to practical issues affecting townships and local officials. He continues to practice at Bellwoar Kelly, LLP, handling legal matters in Pennsylvania.
