Leadership at the firm established the focus of the Chairman to be spearheading client service, overseeing the firm's long-term vision and executing its long-term plan.

Cardello stated, "I am humbled that my partners had the confidence to allow me to continue in the footsteps of my mentor and friend.  Under Marc's leadership, our firm has become a real force in the legal industry, and I expect the growth that we have seen to only accelerate in the coming years.

My new role will also provide me with more time to focus on serving the needs of our clients.  It is always gratifying to feel that you are an important part of both our firm and our clients  success."
