Bryan E. Wardell
Managing Advisor
I am a graduate of Cornell University located in Ithaca, N.Y. and a double graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with degrees in Law and Public Health. I was licensed to practice law in 1993 in North Carolina and in 1994 in the State of New York. For three decades I have been dedicated to providing the highest quality legal representation for my clients; specializing in the areas of Local Government Law, Business Law, Tax Appeals, Board Governance and more.
I am not afraid of the courtroom, and have taken many cases to verdict and obtained million dollar settlements for my clients. Having sat on both sides of the aisle, I have a unique understanding of how to represent both plaintiffs and defendants in litigation and business disputes. As part of this process I offer my clients personalized attention, practical guidance, and tailored solutions. I am committed to resolving disputes in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible while maintaining the highest level of professionalism and ethical standards.
