Stephen Ganis

After practicing for a decade in prominent New York City law firms and serving as general counsel to a nationwide investment firm, Stephen Ganis continues to counsel clients in commercial transactions, acquiring and disposing of business assets, as well as business services. Clients range in size from small start-ups to large, publicly-traded companies. Areas of practice include: Acquisition and disposition of business assets; business startups; reviewing, drafting and negotiating commercial contracts, leases and license agreements; and corporate governance issues and regulatory compliance. Steve has been an entrepreneur himself, having started his own law firm, and also was a founder of a (non-digital!) community newspaper in Brooklyn. He views his traits of sense of humor, thoroughness, and empathy, as helpful to his clients. He is an adjunct professor of business law at Sacred Heart University, Fairfield, CT
