April 2, 2012

Eaton Peabody continues to add depth of experience to its full service law firm by welcoming Dan Pittman. Mr. Pittman will leave Wall Street to join Eaton Peabody's Business Law Practice Group as a tax attorney.

"We were looking for an experienced tax lawyer and Dan and his wife were looking to move to Maine," stated managing partner Dan McKay.  "Dan's desire for the quality of life Maine offers and our need for a highly qualified tax lawyer turned out to be a shared good fortune.   We are delighted to welcome Dan to Eaton Peabody."    

"My wife and I were committed to move to Maine to find the quality of life we are seeking. Finding my niche at a highly regarded law firm like Eaton Peabody was the icing on the cake," stated Mr. Pittman. "I am very excited to join such a well-respected Maine law firm."
