We’ve been working with businesses and non-profits throughout the mid-Atlantic region for more than five decades.

Today, we represent many top universities, hospitals, financial institutions, religious organizations, and real estate development companies. And several of these relationships go back more than 40 years.

Our practice areas range from health care, employment and education, to corporate and real estate transactions, commercial lending, civil litigation, renewable energy, creditors’ rights and bankruptcy.

Whatever your challenge, you can count on us for innovative, practical guidance with a personal touch.
