Biography

Lisa A. McNelis is a Boca Raton, Florida personal injury attorney with more than 40 years of experience representing injured individuals and families in personal injury litigation matters throughout South Florida. She has been board certified and continuously recertified by The Florida Bar as a Civil Trial Lawyer since 1996, reflecting her substantial courtroom experience and commitment to the practice of civil trial law.

Originally born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and raised in Indiana, Ms. McNelis attended the University of Notre Dame and also studied at the University of Innsbruck in Austria. She later moved to Florida to attend Nova Southeastern University Shepard Broad College of Law, where she earned her law degree and began her legal career representing plaintiffs in personal injury litigation.

After law school, Ms. McNelis joined the law firm of Krupnick, Campbell, Malone and Roselli, where she practiced for 20 years and became the firm's first female partner. Her work has focused on helping individuals injured due to the negligence of others, including those involved in automobile accidents, slip and fall incidents, and other serious injury claims.

Ms. McNelis and her husband, Richard Roselli, later established Roselli & McNelis in Boca Raton, Florida. At the firm, she continues to represent plaintiffs in personal injury litigation matters involving car accidents, premises liability, wrongful death, and other negligence-related claims. Together with her partners, she has helped clients recover significant settlements and verdicts in complex injury cases.
