History

Our firm has been in existence since 1977. Since that time, the firm has grown to more than eighty lawyers. We have moved to a number of different locations within downtown New Brunswick. In 1989, we purchased the present offices of the firm at 40 Paterson Street from Rutgers University. The building used to be the Mason Gross School of the Arts. The firm significantly refurbished the premises. In recent years, we have added satellite offices in Clinton and New York City.
