Company Description

Plain talk and exceptional expertise means that we are a practical law firm with a deep bench of talented attorneys. We're a place where real people with real know-how get together to solve real problems and help you make business and personal decisions that are better for you. We take the confusion out of this complex profession and give you expert advice in terms real people use.A firm can only be as strong as its people, and our resumes are full of a diverse mix of corporate, pro bono, community and public service experiences. Our alumni include a Majority Leader of the New York State Senate, a Chief Judge of our State's Highest Court, two Justices on the Appellate Division of the New York State Supreme Court, a presently sitting U.S. District Court Judge, the presently sitting Surrogate Court Judge for Onondaga County, several State Supreme Court Justices, a Chairman of the Onondaga County Legislature and many presidents of the Onondaga County Bar Association. We serve as officers, directors and counselors on the boards of our community's most prominent charities, state and local bar associations and several municipal and business entities.Our firm has been a leader in Upstate New York's legal community since 1884, because we've always stayed true to our founders' goals of providing plain talk and exceptional expertise to each and every one of our clients. The wisdom and knowledge of the lawyers who walked our hallways nearly a century ago will always be reflected in our character - we understand that attorneys need to be much more than good lawyers. They need to be good citizens with values as strong as their knowledge of the law. We have the resources of a large firm, but we counsel our clients in a personable atmosphere. Our work ethic is steeped in tradition, but our efforts to provide our clients with the best possible service drive us to keep pace with the present and prepare for the future.
