The five remaining attorneys at the now defunct Hartford law firm Rome McGuigan aren’t leaving the industry.
But they did recently decide that maintaining their own independent firm was no longer in their best interests. Instead, they’re joining other firms.
Hartford law firm Rome McGuigan – a mainstay in downtown for 41 years – disbanded Friday evening, officials familiar with the matter told the Hartford Business Journal.
The firm filed a notice of dissolution with the Connecticut Secretary of the State’s office Friday at 11:59 p.m.
The venerable law firm was founded by Austin McGuigan, a former chief state’s attorney who died in March 2021, and Lewis Rome, a former Republican state senate majority leader. Rome died in July 2015.
