2014 Year in Review: Remarkable Anniversaries were Celebrated and Several Attorneys Joined CMDA
As a new year is upon us, we reflect back on 2014 and the successful year we had at the Firm. We celebrated some remarkable anniversaries and several attorneys joined our Firm.
It is with great honor that I recognize the founder of our Firm, Owen Cummings, who celebrated his 50th year of practicing law in 2014. CMDA will be celebrating our 50th Anniversary this year. This monumental anniversary would not have been possible without Owen’s vision of developing a Firm whose strength rests in the service we provide our clients. On behalf of everyone at the Firm, we thank you Mr. Cummings for the dedication and effort he has put into growing CMDA over the past 50 years.
