Matthew B. Andelman, Associate

Matt Andelman joined Delaney McKinney in July 2009 after six years practicing litigation at Williams & Connolly LLP. After the birth of his triplet daughters, Mr. Andelman transitioned to the family law field. Mr. Andelman was attracted to Delaney McKinney’s stellar reputation in the legal community as well as its commitment to the interests of children. He has served as pro bono counsel in the Family Court of the D.C. Superior Court through his work with the Children’s Law Center.

While at Williams & Connolly, Mr. Andelman represented both individuals and businesses in high-stakes litigation. He showed particular skill for uncovering hidden assets and wrongly-withheld documents. In one case, Mr. Andelman successfully showed that a party claiming a lack of assets had secretly transferred millions of dollars to his family and friends. In a separate case, Mr. Andelman sifted through thousands of financial records and took numerous depositions to determine that a party claiming tens of millions of dollars in business damages was instead perpetrating a massive tax fraud. Mr. Andelman has also worked with experts on damages and business valuation issues. As part of his trial experience, Mr. Andelman won a significant international arbitration judgment, plus attorneys’ fees, in a breach of contract action. Mr. Andelman participated in many other complex litigation and settlement proceedings while associated with Williams & Connolly LLP.

Mr. Andelman graduated magna cum laude and Order of the Coif from the University of Michigan Law School in 2001. He received his B.A. from Haverford College in 1997. Prior to joining Williams & Connolly, he served as a judicial clerk for Judge Ronald M. Gould of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in Seattle. Mr. Andelman is admitted to practice in the state and federal courts of Maryland, the District of Columbia, and California.
