Exciting News to Share!
The exciting news of the next phase of our practice is the announcement that Spain, Spain & Varnet P.C. (all of it – attorneys and staff) are now a part of the venerable firm of Hahn Loeser & Parks LLP, a law firm founded in Cleveland more than 100 years ago, with additional offices in Chicago, Columbus, Fort Myers, Naples, and San Diego.
To be clear, the now 33-year-old entity of Spain, Spain & Varnet P.C is no longer, but the “firm” continues to be available to serve your needs as a part of the Chicago office of Hahn Loeser. We are still focusing on all aspects of special needs planning: government benefits, housing options, special needs trusts, on-going trust administration, gift and tax implications of trusts and estates, guardianships, and other probate matters. We are pleased to continue our long association with The Arc (both Rick Spain and our now retired partner, Terrie Varnet, were long time board members of The Arc of Illinois, and after relocating to Massachusetts, Terrie went on to serve as President of The Arc of Massachusetts).
The advantages of the transition cannot be overstated:
- Additional resources for our clients in the expanded locations and practice areas afforded by the new firm;
- A plan for continuity of services supported by a firm with more than 135 attorneys and
a proven track record of over 100 years; - The benefits of a “smaller” firm within a larger firm with the same group of professionals who have handled special needs matters these past three decades.
