In this work, I utilize my 30-year business, employment, tax, contract, and intellectual property law experience and the diverse talents of my “associates” to the Adelson & Associates, LLC law firm. These are colleagues of mine, who are not my employees or partners, but rather other attorneys, several of whom had been past partners of mine, most of whom have at least 20 years’ experience and whose skills and experience I trust to offer the highest quality law services to my clients, mostly in areas beyond my personal law specialties, including commercial and employment litigation, estate planning, pension and ERISA, IRS and Mass. DOR tax proceedings, real estate, patents and domestic relations. So, if you or someone you know has an issue in any of these areas, please call or email me.
Our firm’s offices are at 101 Federal Street, Boston (the tall 31-story office building pictured above) – 19th Floor, Suite 1900. For reference, the building is just across Franklin Street from my prior building One Federal Street, and across the street from 100 Federal Street, the old Bank of Boston Building, now Bank of America Building. We are one block from Post Office Square in Boston’s Financial District.
