Adam N. Hirsch

Partner

Adam focuses his practice on commercial and business litigation, representing a wide variety of clients ranging from individuals to small business owners to large corporations.

My father was a historian, and I often find it useful to look at each case as its own self-contained history. Which leads to one of my favorite quotes, from Harry S Truman: β€œThe only thing new in the world is the history you do not know.” This quote also explains my ever-expanding vinyl record collection.
