Simon worked as an assistant clerk in Hartford Housing Session, facilitating eviction litigation and real estate disputes. Simon has also served as a Staff Attorney for the New Haven Probate Court, navigating the complexities of Connecticut’s Probate system.

Being born and raised in New Haven, Connecticut, Simon is familiar with the state and local rules and regulations, the state’s real estate landscape, and the many challenges facing communities in Connecticut.
