Our Trusts & Estates Department has grown exponentially over the past three years and is one of the largest and most well-known practices in the region," said John J. McGivney, Managing Partner at Rubin Rudman. "Jessica and Jennifer are a great team with complementary skill sets and together will ensure that our clients continue to be serviced at the highest levels."
Demmerly is the past Co-Chair of the Boston Bar Association's Elder & Disability Law Subcommittee of the Trusts & Estates Steering Committee.
