Our Firm

Overview/History

With nearly 50 attorneys, we’re large enough to handle big, complicated transactions or disputes while small enough to provide responsive, cost-effective, senior level attention to every matter.

Focused, Efficient Representation

We have chosen to focus our legal services in four main departments – business law, commercial litigation, employment and real estate – via talented, experienced attorneys, many of whom previously practiced at large international or national firms. Our Real Estate Department features two of our fastest growing and dynamic practice areas – renewable energy and hospitality.

We offer a unique blend of experienced hands-on counsel, imaginative problem-solving, dedication to client service, and reasonable billing rates. We do not have a pyramid structure with high rate partners at the top and many associates at the bottom, so there is no pressure to “push work down” to keep large classes of associates busy.

Boston Roots, National Presence

Founded in Boston in 1945, Sherin and Lodgen maintains a strong presence in the Boston market, including one of the largest real estate departments in New England. We are proud of our Boston heritage and maintain robust connections throughout the city, through our leadership in bar and industry associations, community involvement, and pro bono work. Our national client base takes much of our work across state lines – representing real estate clients in national acquisition, development, and leasing and representing litigation clients before various state and federal courts.
