Senior Counsel, Every Matter
A boutique practice, by design.
We have intentionally remained small so that the partner you meet is the partner who handles your matter. Clients come to us through referral from other lawyers, accountants, financial advisors, and—most often—from families we have served for decades.
Whether the question is a sophisticated estate plan, a contested fiduciary accounting, an IRS examination, or the sale of a closely-held business, we bring the same patient, technical attention to every file.
