Moss & Colella Co-founder Joins University of Detroit Mercy Alumni Board, Continuing University Support Following Establishment of Civil Rights Scholarship at Law School
The role of the Detroit Mercy Alumni Board is to provide strategic vision, guidance and support to the Alumni Relations team as they work to provide meaningful, impactful and enjoyable engagement opportunities for all alumni interested in staying connected with their alma mater. Peggy Pattison, Director, University of Detroit Mercy Alumni Relations, welcomed Colella to the board.
“We are thrilled to welcome Vince to our alumni leadership team. His enthusiasm toward Detroit Mercy and his established leadership skills will be a wonderful asset to the board and our team as we expand our reach to alumni around the world,” Pattison said.
In addition to his personal injury law practice, Colella is a trailblazer in the new era of civil rights, directing public sector accountability to a new level for the purpose of citizens’ legal protections. In 2019, he established the A. Vince Colella Civil Rights Scholarship at Detroit Mercy Law to help support and encourage law students who demonstrate academic excellence and have a profound interest in joining the fight against social and racial injustice as attorneys.
“Establishing the scholarship rekindled my interest in the mission of the University of Detroit Mercy as a whole and I’m pleased to represent the law school on this University-wide alumni board,” Colella said.
In addition to his law degree, Colella holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Michigan State University.

client review
I was referred to Moss & Colella in 2018 following a car accident. I cannot tell you how confident and safe I felt knowing that I was in good hands. David, and Ryan made sure that I always had any questions or concerns addressed in a timely manner. I appreciated their compassion, and understanding as I got emotional, and the reassurance they provided, made me feel important and valued as a client. If you need a great lawyer for an injury, this is your firm! I hope I never need to be in a position where I’d need their help again, but if I did, I’d gladly seek their services!
