Alan Lieberman, managing partner of Shipman & Goodwin, announced today that he will be retiring from the major Hartford law firm at the end of the year.
Lieberman, a member of the firm’s tax and employee benefits practice, has spent 38 years at Shipman & Goodwin and also serves as chairman of its management committee.
“This is the right time for this change,” Lieberman said. “The firm is well positioned to emerge from the pandemic economy energized to continue as an institution known for its legal excellence, dedication to community and living its core values.”
Shipman is the largest Greater Hartford law firm, with 118 local attorneys, according to HBJ’s 2020 Book of Lists.
The firm says it currently employs 150 lawyers across its Connecticut, New York and Washington, D.C. offices.
Lieberman co-authored the Connecticut corporation business tax provisions governing the taxation of financial service entities and the administrative pronouncements explaining the provisions in collaboration with the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services. He also edited “Taxes on Connecticut Business & Industry,” published by the Connecticut Business & Industry Association.
Shipman & Goodwin expects to announce Lieberman’s successor before December.
