Rose Marie Joly is a member of the firm's Litigation and Healthcare Practice Groups.  Since joining the firm in 1999, Rose has focused her practice on medical malpractice defense in cases brought in state and federal court, as well as disciplinary matters brought before the New Hampshire Boards of Medicine and Nursing.  Her practice includes defense of hospitals, doctors, physician's assistants, nurses, midwives, nursing homes and assisted living facilities.  Rose also does work in the areas of employment litigation and investigations, personal injury, commercial disputes, and defending prisoners' lawsuits.  Rose values negotiation and has successfully negotiated pre-hearing resolutions where that is in the best interests of the firm's clients.

Prior to joining the firm, Rose practiced law from 1996 to 1999 with the Concord law firm of Gallagher, Callahan & Gartrell, where she was a member of the civil litigation practice, working on matters in both state and federal court.  Before entering private practice, Rose served as a law clerk for the N.H. Superior Court from 1994 to 1996 and was selected by a panel of judges to serve as Senior Law Clerk from 1995 to 1996.  In this capacity, she assisted the Justices of the Court in all counties with both civil and criminal matters, and oversaw court placement of and workload of more than a dozen law clerks. 

Rose's education includes a B.S. in Finance from Boston College School of Management, magna cum lauda and as a member of the Beta Gamma Sigma Honor Society.  She also completed the School of Arts and Sciences Honors program at Boston College.  After several years working in the retail industry, Rose attended Boston College Law School from which she graduated in 1994.

Rose received the New Hampshire Bar Association President's Award for Merrimack County for outstanding commitment to Pro Bono service in 1998.  She was a member of the New Hampshire Bar Association's New Lawyer's Committee for a number of years, and is now a member of the New Hampshire Women's Bar Association. 

Rose is a founding Board member of Dress for Success New Hampshire, a not-for-profit organization helping low-income women transition to the workforce, and has served as the Board's Treasurer and President.  She has actively been involved in fundraising for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's Walk to cure Diabetes, since her then toddler son was diagnosed with Type I diabetes in 2004, and has consistently been recognized by JDRF for those efforts.  Rose has an interest in community theatre and has performed in a number of local variety show fundraisers under the direction of Irene Deschenes.  In 2000 she was cast in the lead of the Concord Community Players' Spring/Summer musical, A Medieval Romance.
