A great way to wrap up the summer! ⛳️

Our attorneys spent Friday afternoon at Harbor Lights for our annual firm golf tournament. It was a great afternoon of golf, good conversation, and time together outside of the office.

We’re fortunate to be part of a firm that values both the work we do for our clients and the relationships we build with one another. Opportunities to step away from the day-to-day and spend time together are an important part of what makes our firm a great place to work. Looking forward to next year!

As the new school year gets underway, our attorneys have been busy helping school administrators stay informed on the latest legal developments and navigate the issues facing school communities today.

From updates on education law and emerging legal issues to professional development and practical guidance for administrators, our team is proud to partner with schools and districts throughout the year.

We’re looking forward to another school year of collaboration, learning, and supporting the important work of our education clients.

We’re excited to welcome Everett and Klaudia to the firm for the fall semester!

Everett returns to us after spending the summer with the firm. A 2L at Boston University School of Law, Everett has developed a growing appreciation for the many ways the law impacts individuals in their day-to-day lives. His experiences working in education law and commercial law this summer have further expanded his interests across the legal profession.

Klaudia joins us as a 3L at UMass School of Law. She has a particular interest in Legislative and Administrative Law and is looking forward to gaining experience across a range of legal matters during her time with us.

Welcome, Everett and Klaudia! We’re happy to have you with us and look forward to a great fall semester.
