Thomas A. Strohmetz is a founding partner of The Chartwell Law Offices, LLP, where he concentrates his practice in representing self insured employers, insurance companies, and governmental and quasi-governmental agencies in workers’ compensation matters. He is also a member of the firm’s Medicare Set Aside team. He is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, as well as before the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. He is a 1991 graduate of St. Joseph’s University and a 1994 cum laude graduate of Widener University School of Law. Mr. Strohmetz began his legal career as a judicial clerk for The Honorable Vincent Cirillo of the Pennsylvania Superior Court. In 1995 he became associated with the Philadelphia firm Harvey Pennington, Ltd., where he devoted his practice to handling workers’ compensation, general liability, and premises liability matters. Mr. Strohmetz continued his career at Weber, Gallagher, Simpson, Stapleton, Fires & Newby where he became a partner while focusing his practice on Pennsylvania workers’ compensation claims. In 2002, Mr. Strohmetz founded Chartwell with three attorneys in one office in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. Mr. Strohmetz has seen the firm grow from the original four (4) partners in 2002 to over sixty-five (65) attorneys in nine (9) offices throughout Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, and Florida. Firm attorneys also routinely practice in West Virginia.
Mr. Strohmetz is committed to obtaining the best possible results for his clients, whether that means settling a minor claim early in litigation to save the client’s time and expense or whether it requires pursuing a matter to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Mr. Strohmetz has ensured the closure of over 600 claims for his clients just since Chartwell’s inception. He has been successful in recovering over $1.6 million dollars for his clients in Supersedeas Fund Reimbursement since Chartwell’s inception in 2002. He has also saved his clients in excess of $1 million dollars through creative and effective litigation practices.
While grateful for the success of Chartwell and the client relationships he has, Mr. Strohmetz is most thankful for his time with family, especially his four wonderful children.
