About Thomas
Thomas Nummey is a lawyer who combines legal training with a formal background in accounting and economics. He is the principal lawyer at The Law Office of Thomas Nummey and practices from that private office. Those dual strands of study shape how he approaches client matters and explain why numbers often matter as much as words in his work.
He earned a Bachelor of Science in 2006 from Fordham University, majoring in accounting and taking a minor in economics. He then stayed at Fordham for law school and received his J.D. in 2009 from Fordham University School of Law. The sequence — undergraduate study followed directly by law school — gave him both technical financial understanding and professional legal training in a compact span of years.
After law school, Nummey moved into private practice. Over time he became the principal lawyer at his own firm, The Law Office of Thomas Nummey. That role puts him at the center of case strategy, client intake and the day-to-day management of a small legal practice. He handles the administrative responsibilities that come with running an office while also carrying a caseload.
His academic background in accounting and economics is more than an academic footnote. It informs how he reads financial documents and evaluates economic elements of a case. Clients who present matters with monetary analyses, budgets or accounting records will find that he approaches those materials with a familiarity that comes from formal study, not just on-the-job experience.
Colleagues describe his approach as practical and detail-focused, attentive to documentation and timelines. He builds files that emphasize records and clear explanations. Courtroom advocacy, negotiation and written work all demand different habits; his training encourages a methodical and evidence-centered preparation.
Outside the office, Nummey’s career has been centered on running a private practice rather than on academic appointments or public office. He continues to base his work at The Law Office of Thomas Nummey, where he manages client matters and the operations of his firm. He currently serves as principal lawyer at The Law Office of Thomas Nummey, operating a solo practice from that office.
