Selectmen Pick New Legal Council

Louison, Costello, Condon, & Pfaff has been chosen as the town’s new legal counsel.

On Tuesday, the selectmen unanimously voted to approve the choice of Louison, Costello, Condon, & Pfaff to be town counsel and to consider the option to retain David DeLuca of Murphy, Hesse, Toomey, and Lehane as special counsel for liquor matters.

Louison, Costello, Condon, & Pfaff was the top choice for Chairman Lorraine Brue, Ginny Coppola and John Gray. Jim DeVellis and David Feldman both picked Blatman, Bobrowski & Mead as their top choice.

Both Coppola and Gray said they felt the chosen law firm would be a good fit for the town, with Brue stating she had a sense that they could move the town forward.

Both Feldman and DeVellis said they liked the passion and fee structure from Blatman, Bobrowski & Mead, but conceded that there was no bad choice the board could make.

Louison, Costello, Condon, & Pfaff will replace Gelerman and Cabral as the town’s legal counsel.
