Managers at two Connecticut-based law firms are starting 2025 by celebrating things shiny and new, and they say they're poised for a year of growth and change, as a recent Law.com survey also suggests.
Andy Corea, partner at the recently combined Harris Beach Murtha, said transitions at the firm are "still ongoing" following the recent merger of New York's Harris Beach and Hartford's Murtha Cullina. Corea was the managing partner at Murtha prior to the merger and he now serves on the combined firm's management committee.
