Biography

Carmine was admitted to the Connecticut Bar in 2005, the U.S. District Court, District of Connecticut in 2005, and the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in 2011.

Carmine is a member of the Connecticut Bar Association Elder Law Section and a member of the Connecticut Chapter of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (N.A.E.L.A). For the sixth year in a row, Carmine was selected as a New England Elder Law “Rising Star” by New England Super Lawyers magazine.

In 2011, Carmine was appointed to the Probate Court Rules Advisory Committee. The Committee drafted new rules and revised existing rules regarding probate procedure and practice. The 26-member committee comprised judges, attorneys, court staff, and members of the public.

In 2016, Carmine was one of the authors of the newly revised “Court-Appointed Attorneys in Courts of Probate” manual. Additionally, Carmine serves on the Connecticut Bar Journal’s Board of Editors.

In a decision released February 1, 2018, the Connecticut Supreme Court found in favor of the Carmine’s clients (Paul Valliere et al.) who had challenged the Commissioner of Social Services over a determination from the Department of Social Services (DSS) regarding whether or not a preexisting spousal support order rendered by the Probate Court was binding on DSS.

Carmine received his law degree in 2005 from Quinnipiac University School of Law. He received his bachelor’s degree in 2002 majoring in Philosophy.

A conservatorship is a legal proceeding wherein a petition is filed (most frequently by a family member) in court to request that a conservator be appointed for an individual. The probate court always appoints a lawyer to represent the person who is the subject of the conservatorship. There must also be a recently dated physical examination accompanied by a doctor’s report. A conservator, similar to a guardian who is responsible for the individual's personal and financial affairs, can be appointed by the court. A conservator of the person is appointed if the individual's decision-making ability is diminished to the extent that he or she is at risk of endangering his or her personal health, safety or welfare or that of others. A conservator of the property is appointed if the individual's decision-making ability is diminished to the extent that his or her financial assets are at risk of being dissipated or improperly managed. What is a conservatorship?
