“I am delighted to welcome Stephen to the firm. He is a business lawyer with unusual talent, equally capable of assisting his clients with corporate transactions, from formations, mergers and acquisitions to joint ventures and other contracts, as well as a veteran trial attorney who can also ably represent his clients in court when they are involved in complex litigation,” said Co-Managing Partner, Frederick R. Cummings, Jr. “We look forward to his contributions to the firm, particularly as he further deepens our services in two of our core practice areas.”

“Stephen’s experience spans industries and ranges from private company disputes and ‘business divorces’ to unfair competition, fraud and business torts, as well as restrictive covenant and employment disputes,” said Co-Managing Partner, Thomas Filardo. “He also has taken the time outside of his busy practice to become involved in many legal, non-profit and business organizations as a lecturer and educator. He is a terrific addition to the firm.”
