Schnader Chairman Re-elected to Another Term

Schnader Harrison Segal & Lewis Chairman Ralph G. Wellington was unanimously re-elected by the firm’s partnership for another three-year term. He has already served in the role for 9 years.

Wellington said he views part of his responsibility to be succession planning and will probably be ready to hand over his role by the end of this term.

For the next three years, Wellington said he wants to continue to grow the firm’s offices incrementally and would “quite likely” be opening an office in a new market.

The firm, he said, learned its lesson from its failed merger with Boston firm Goldstein & Manello in 2000 and would be open to another merger attempt.

He said a firm of his size can’t be in this business and not look to grow.

Overall, Wellington said he wants to ensure that Schnader Harrison continues as a “successful, first-class law firm.”
