"After 22 successful years at ITT, I decided to take advantage of their early retirement package. As part of my decision-making process, I looked around to find just the right 'of counsel' arrangement with a law firm. I talked to several large NYC firms that I knew well and to RatnerPrestia, a Philadelphia area firm with thirty-plus lawyers that I also knew well.

After all the talk, I weighed my options and decided on RatnerPrestia.

The firm is not so large that I'm lost -- I make a difference. It does not carry the overheads of large NYC firms and their high billing rates. I felt that with RatnerPrestia's billing structure, it would be easier to build a good practice. The skills of RatnerPrestia's incumbent lawyers allowed me to build a strong practice including patent prosecution, trademark portfolio management, litigation, and transactional work. My clients receive timely first rate service at reasonable prices. They know they are important to the firm and they actually know the lawyers doing the work. We are building strong relationships.

On top of all that, the Philadelphia area is a great place to live. I made the right choice."
