(he/him/his)

Kenneth L. Sherman retired from the practice of law on December 1, 2020, after an impressive 42-year career primarily focused on business and corporate law, with a particular emphasis on family-owned and operated businesses. Ken developed a wealth of expertise in corporate law, real estate, estate planning, estate administration, and commercial leasing and property management. His creative approach to legal strategy and diverse knowledge brought unique advantages to our firm and his clients. Ken's clientele ranged from self-employed entrepreneurs to multinational corporations. Throughout his career, he championed out-of-court and consensual dispute resolution methods, including mediation and arbitration, and successfully managed a variety of complex, multi-million dollar commercial transactions. Many of Ken’s former clients have evolved into significant publicly traded corporations.

Bidding farewell to a founding partner of the firm is never easy, and we will greatly miss collaborating with Ken. Those of us who know him best are confident that he will not truly retire. Instead, Ken plans to redirect his talents towards pursuing his passions: golf, traveling, reading, and spending quality time with family, friends, and grandchildren. While he looks forward to his retirement, he anticipates missing the fulfillment that comes from assisting his valued clients.

At our law firm, we maintain a collaborative model for addressing client matters, ensuring that our team is always well-acquainted with each client's legal needs. During this transition, Ken encourages all of his current clients to reach out to Aubrey Sherman, the Managing Partner, who is eager to assist you with your legal needs or to make appropriate referrals to other legal professionals.
