Stefani C. Schwartz and Kathryn Van Deusen Hatfield recently left the Weiner Law Group in Parsippany and formed Hatfield Schwartz Law Group in Cedar Knolls, a 100% women-owned firm. They brought along two associates: Shannon Boyne and Andrea DiMarco. The firm, which opened Sept. 8, handles employment, labor and business matters for private and public sector employers, according to Schwartz, who spoke with the Law Journal by phone and email.
When it came to launching a new firm, “we both spoke about this in an abstract manner,” Schwartz said of herself and Hatfield, but when COVID-19 hit, it prompted them to think more about the future. Hatfield Schwartz has a physical office—”what’s space these days?” Schwartz quipped, though she said it’s “important for lawyers” to be able to collaborate in person and not always remotely.
