Today’s legal issues require expertise in a
myriad of areas of the law. Most cases bring
new twists that require as much creativity as
legal knowledge.
Indeed, the firm that goes beyond the conventional — fostering new ideas
and synergies, while maintaining cost efficiency — often achieves the greatest
success for its clients.  Many clients, including FORTUNE 500 companies, have
found such a firm in Whiteman Osterman & Hanna.
As the largest law firm in New York’s Capital Region with over 100 attorneys,
Whiteman Osterman & Hanna offers clients a broad range of expertise
covering a wide array of practice areas and industry specializations.
EXPERIENCED
The best filter for ideas, ultimately, is longtime
experience in the law itself — the type of
experience that can weigh ideas, test them, and
determine their effectiveness for the client.
At Whiteman Osterman & Hanna, our depth of experience is unparalleled in
the Capital District. Current and past partners include former counsel and
assistant counsel to four governors of New York State and two former general
counsels of the State’s Department of Environmental Conservation. Our Senior
Counsel include a former New York Court of Appeals Judge, a former Appellate
Division Judge, and a former Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the
U.S. Department of Justice.
EFFICIENT
Every client wants the best legal representation
available.
At the same time, today’s organizations must keep a close eye on expenses
in all areas — and legal expenses are no exception. We have structured our
entire practice to provide excellent representation while maximizing cost
efficiencies for our clients. As part of that structure, we always seek to “add
value.” It is not merely about drafting agreements that withstand the test of
time or structuring a bullet-proof approval process. It is also about bringing
value directly to the bottom line — achieving the unexpected litigation victory,
structuring a unique business opportunity, or identifying combinations of
creative financing, tax benefits, and economic development incentives that
can make a project viable.

RESPONSIVE
There is no substitute for a law firm that knows
all aspects of your organization.
By eliminating the learning curve, a firm with such familiarity generates cost
efficiencies for the client. By knowing both your organization and the law, we
can uncover hidden opportunities — and head off future threats. For this
reason, we seek to build long-term relationships with our clients. Indeed, in
many instances, they become part of our extended family and our concern
for them extends far beyond strictly legal matters. Such an attitude, we have
found, is good for our clients.
A COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY
Whiteman Osterman & Hanna is dedicated to being a good corporate citizen
and supporting the local community.  Many of our attorneys and professional
staff serve on not-for-profit boards and committees, and the Firm has been
a leader in providing corporate support and sponsorship to many charitable
events and organizations throughout the Capital Region.
The Firm is also committed to providing pro bono service in our community.
We believe our attorneys have an ethical obligation to provide pro bono legal
services, that clients receiving such pro bono services are entitled to the same
level of professional service that we provide to other clients of the Firm, and
that the provision of pro bono legal services will improve the education and
community standing of both the Firm and the attorneys who provide those
services.
