Practice/Organization Description
Harris Beach Murtha is more than a law firm. We are a strategic partner dedicated to providing legal services that align with your business goals and spur success. We are a one-stop shop for problem solving – a mid-size firm with full-service capabilities that help your business navigate legal challenges and manage day-to-day operations. Skillful legal representation often makes the difference in business growth and prosperity.
A forward-thinking and innovative partner with the benefit of more than 250 years of combined history, our New York roots reach back to 1856 and we have had ties to New England since 1936. We are a regional heavyweight firm with more than 250 attorneys across 16 offices in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and the District of Columbia.
The Northeast Corridor is a major driver of our nation’s economy, and, with boots on the ground and deep experience, we understand the complex regulatory, governmental, political and cultural environments. We are equipped to help clients, especially new and emerging businesses, successfully navigate those landscapes. That is a true differentiator for our clients. But, make no mistake, we are not limited by geography, time zones or language. We have a Northeast presence with global reach, and boldly embrace the unique challenges of regional, national and international law.
Our People and Values
Our growth mindset is an integral part of our business strategy. Our strongest investments are in our people and the tools and technology they need to deliver high-quality services that meet client goals, save time and help drive positive bottom-line results. We are equipped and prepared to see your vision through.
Our strong culture and well-deserved reputation for excellence were developed over many years. Our core set of values and beliefs – integrity, respect, accountability, ingenuity, teamwork, inclusion and diversity – shape the behavior of our organization and its people. It defines who we are and where we are going. We are passionate about lifting up – our people, our clients, our community.
Collaborating for Innovative, Customized Solutions
Our goal is to answer your most difficult questions and complex legal and business challenges with innovative, customized solutions. We are more than attorneys. We are counselors in the truest sense of the word, working to understand your needs and collaborating for efficient answers that produce the desired results. We are client-focused and committed to thinking big, pursuing excellence and exceeding expectations.
Our clients include Fortune 100 corporations, privately-held companies, emerging businesses, public sector utilities, tax-exempt organizations and individuals. We zealously represent industries such as automotive, cannabis, construction and surety, education, energy, financial markets, food and beverage, health care, long-term care, manufacturing, medical and life sciences, gaming and hospitality, real estate development, retail, utilities and state and local governments and authorities.
