Swartzberg & Dugan merges with Madison law firm
DeWitt Ross & Stevens, Madison’s largest law firm, is expanding its range of legal and professional services in the Milwaukee market by combining its practice with the Swartzberg & Duggan law firm in Greenfield.
The newly expanded firm will continue to use the Swartzberg & Duggan offices at 5075 S. 76th St. In addition, the office will continue to add other attorneys and will combine additional law practices in the coming months.
The firm plans to relocate its Milwaukee-area attorneys to new offices in the Brookfield area in the early part of summer.
“Milwaukee and the I-94 corridor between Madison and Milwaukee continue to be an area of growth and development for Dewitt Ross & Stevens,” said Stephen A. DiTullio, managing partner and president of Dewitt Ross & Stevens. “Combining our areas of practice with those of the well respected firm of Swartzberg & Duggan allows us to more effectively serve our clients and create an even stronger legal presence in this important market.”
Sandy Swartzberg, managing partner of Swartzberg & Duggan, said, “The partnership offers our firms opportunities for continued growth as well as to meet the demands of our clients’ growing needs.”
Swartzberg, who will oversee the Milwaukee office operations, founded Swartzberg & Duggan in 1979.
Dewitt Ross & Stevens currently represents several Milwaukee-based companies in the insurance and environmental industries, and plans to expand that representation to include additional Milwaukee-area companies.
New attorneys joining Swartzberg and the current ream of attorneys in Milwaukee are M. Susan Churchill, who has had her own law practice for the last 12 years with an emphasis on employee benefits law, and David V. Meany, whose 20 years of experience includes commercial litigation and e-business areas.
Dewitt Ross & Stevens expects to announce the combining of additional practices into the Milwaukee office in the coming months. The firm currently has nine focused practice groups with more than 30 practice areas.
Dewitt Ross & Stevens has more than 70 attorneys. Its three offices include the new Greenfield office, on the Capitol Square in Madison and on the west side of Madison. The firm is on the Web at www.dewittross.com.
