Tony provides antitrust counseling and corporate law advice to various trade associations, including associations involved in the building materials, distribution, environmental, print and forest and paper products industries. He also counsels clients in general corporate matters and employment law, including executive compensation, employment contracts and discrimination and termination issues, and he advises municipalities in specialized administrative law matters.
