About Burns & Levinson LLP:
At Burns & Levinson, we practice law differently. While our attorneys agree that results drive our business, building relationships with our clients and providing value added service is the key to our success. We work hard to provide the legal experience and industry knowledge you need, as well as the personal attention you deserve - adding value to your life and the life of your business. Your personal and business success is our top priority. So whatever your legal need, consider it done. As a Boston-based firm with more than 125 attorneys, we are large enough to represent clients in complex and sophisticated matters, yet small enough to be very responsive, providing direct partner-level, proactive advice. Our attorneys are experienced and extremely motivated. They're willing to go beyond their traditional role and do whatever it takes to get results. No matter what your legal need, we've got you covered. Here are a few examples of how we get things done: Act as your legal counsel and business advisor Provide strategic solutions for your legal issues Understand your business and industry Think globally, looking at the full picture, not just the matter at hand Advise our individual clients in their personal lives Identify how personal decisions may affect other matters including your business Go the extra mile to help our clients find the resources and make the connections they need to make the deal happen Provide access to an integrated team of knowledgeable and experienced attorneys Keep clients informed of important changes in the law Offer prompt responses and personal attention from senior partners An entrepreneurial spirit and results-driven attitude" our history Our founders Thomas Burns and Larry Levinson, along with William Clancy and Robert Weinstein, established Burns & Levinson in 1960 on the principles of being accessible to clients, being responsive to their needs and ultimately providing the highest quality legal services. These principles have served our clients well. Our continued commitment to the founding principles of the firm results in an entrepreneurial approach to providing services. In January 2006, 35 attorneys from Perkins Smith & Cohen joined our firm. The addition of these attorneys, known for their patent and intellectual property practices, with a focus on the science and technology sector, added depth and further enhanced our ability to fully service the science and technology industries. Since then we have continued to support our clients in key areas of practice, adding talented attorneys in a variety of areas, expanding the breadth of expertise and experience to effectively serve their needs.
