Ira Silverstein

Ira Silverstein has been representing both individuals and institutions in difficult litigation matters for over 40 years. A 1973 graduate of Harvard Law School, Mr. Silverstein has spent his career bringing creativity and tenacious advocacy to his clients’ causes. This combination has resulted in numerous precedent setting cases.

The Silverstein Firm is a law firm that focuses on complex litigation. It was founded on the marriage of one very old and one very new idea. The old idea is that law is a profession, not a business, and the success of a firm should be measured by results achieved for clients, not profits generated for partners. The new idea is that modern information technology can largely eliminate the need for large teams of lawyers even on the most complex of cases. Complexity can and should be managed through creativity and cutting edge technology rather than by throwing bodies at a case. Technology also opens a path to greater active cooperation between lawyer and client, allowing for greater transparency and mutuality in the lawyer-client relationship. At The Silverstein Firm, the result of this marriage of old and new is a detailed and individualized, yet efficient attention to client goals and needs. The firm’s clients are not just represented. They are guided and educated through the strange and, for the uninitiated, somewhat frightening world of the law.
