Raffaele Puppio, a full-service law firm based in Media, has welcomed attorney Konstantinos Patsiopoulos to the firm, where he will focus his practice on special education law.

“School district personnel work tirelessly to ensure that students receive the support they need to thrive in school and in life,” said Patsiopoulos. “When legal issues arise, I work just as tirelessly to ensure that the district’s dedication to their students’ education does not go unnoticed.”

A resident of Doylestown, Patsiopoulos joins Raffaele Puppio after working as a staff attorney representing domestic violence survivors for A Woman’s Place, a Bucks County nonprofit. He represented clients in custody trials, support hearings, conferences, protection from abuse (PFA) hearings, and indirect criminal contempt hearings.

“Through his prior work, Kosta has shown a true dedication to his clients, and we’re excited to bring that steadfast counsel to our special education team at Raffaele Puppio,” said Gabrielle Goham, partner and chair of the Special Education Department at the firm.

Patsiopoulos previously served as a judicial law clerk for a common pleas judge in Dauphin County, where he was then appointed to serve on the Dauphin County Board of Arbitration. He also spent time as a judicial fellow for a common pleas judge in Philadelphia County.

Patsiopoulos holds a bachelor’s degree from Bloomsburg and a law degree from Widener. In his final year of law school, he served as a Pupil of the Lipsitt Inn of Court of the Dauphin County Bar Association, where he was honored with the Service Award for his contributions to Widener University School of Law.
