Harold W. Haldeman

HAROLD W. HALDEMAN has been working with Edward Nusbaum since 1999. The scope of his principal roles at the Law Offices of Edward Nusbaum P.C. involve discovery, management, preparation and analysis of financial documents, as well as preparation for depositions, pre-trial evaluations, mediations, arbitrations and trials.

Adept at guiding clients through the complex process of preparing essential documents and responding to financial discovery typical in high-asset cases, Haldeman also manages the intake, cataloguing and analysis of the same documents and discovery from the opposing side, methodically synthesizing vast amounts of information to provide concise, informative data for settlement or trial of the case. He works on all types of family law matters, including divorce, alimony, child support, property distribution and child custody, including preparation of pleadings, separation agreements, parenting plans and proposed orders for pre-trial and trial.

Haldeman served in the United States Navy for 27 years, both as a Surface Warfare Officer, and, after attending law school, as a member of the Judge Advocate General’s Corps. Among his assignments as a judge advocate, he served as Legal Officer of the USS NIMITZ (CVN-68), Staff Judge Advocate for the Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and, for eight years, as a Military Judge in the Navy Marine Corps Trial Judiciary. During his service, he received the Navy Achievement Medal, Navy Commendation Medal, Meritorious Service Medal and Legion of Merit.

Haldeman is a recipient of an American Jurisprudence Award. He is co-author of, “A History of the First One Hundred Years of the Connecticut Bar Association,” published in the Connecticut Bar Journal. During his time as a Military Judge he was the originator of the Navy-Marine Corps Trial Judiciary Electronic Bench Book, and the author of, Lex Novissima Loquitor, a periodical keeping the worldwide Navy Trial Judiciary abreast of changes in military case law. Both, at the time, represented singular applications of new technology to improve the efficiency and accuracy of judges’ preparation for trials ashore and at sea. He also lectured on application of technology at the Naval Justice School’s Military Judges Course.

Haldeman is admitted to practice in Connecticut. He earned a bachelor’s degree from Williams College and a Juris Doctor degree, with honors, from the University of Connecticut. He is a member of the American Legion and the Navy Marine Corps Retired Judge Advocates Association.
