        Verrill Welcomes Private Clients & Fiduciary Services Attorney Brendan H. Buschman

        GREENWICH, Connecticut – Verrill is pleased to welcome Brendan H. Buschman to the firm’s Private Clients & Fiduciary Services Group as a Partner.

        Simultaneously, and as part of its continued growth in the Connecticut market, Verrill has moved to a new, larger office in Greenwich at 66 Field Point Road. Buschman will be resident in the Greenwich office.

        Buschman joins Verrill from a boutique trusts and estates firm in Stamford, Connecticut, and the firm is pleased to leverage his Connecticut partnerships as part of the firm’s expanding, sophisticated Private Clients & Fiduciary Services Group.

        Buschman is admitted in Connecticut, New York and Florida and is well-positioned to assist clients with cross-jurisdictional concerns in the areas of estate planning, estate and trust administration and tax planning and preparation.  He particularly specializes in advising individuals on limiting their estate, gift and income tax exposure.

        Attorneys Kevin A. Walsh, James C. Riley and Harry E. Peden III will also operate from Verrill’s new Greenwich location, which, combined with the firm’s Westport, Connecticut office, will provide a full range of legal services to its Fairfield County clients.  Verrill’s dynamic growth in the Connecticut market over the past few years is a product of the firm’s commitment to providing top notch legal service throughout the Northeast.
