About Charles Tiernan

Charles Tiernan III has spent decades practicing law in Connecticut. His career began in the early 1980s and has remained tied to the same firm for much of that time. He is a familiar presence in local legal circles and a member of the Connecticut State Bar.

He studied political science at Trinity College, earning a B.A. before moving on to law school. He completed his Juris Doctor at Drake University Law School. Those academic years prepared him for a steady climb into private practice.

In 1983 he joined Lynch, Traub, Keefe & Errante as a lawyer. That early experience set the tone for a long association with the firm. Over the years he has continued his work there, maintaining an office within the firm and representing clients in matters that arise under Connecticut law.

Tiernan has kept active in the organized bar. He holds membership in the Connecticut State Bar and remains current on the roster. That membership reflects his standing to practice in Connecticut courts and his ongoing participation in the professional community.

Colleagues describe him as someone who takes a practical approach to client matters. He has handled a range of issues brought by individuals and businesses, drawing on years of courtroom and office experience. He is experienced in the rhythms of local practice, from filing pleadings to negotiating resolutions and appearing in hearings.

As of 2026 he practices at Lynch, Traub, Keefe & Errante, P.C., where his work centers on advising and representing clients in Connecticut matters.
