Franklin & Frankel LLC – We’re Official!

This past Wednesday, April 24, 2025, the West Hartford Chamber of Commerce helped us host our ribbon cutting ceremony. Franklin & Frankel LLC is officially up and running, and ready to continue serving our clients and community any and every way we can.

Founder Scott Franklin (literally) passed the torch to our newly minted firm owner, Aaron Frankel. Their longstanding partnership continues as the firm enters this new era. West Hartford Mayor, Shari Cantor, came and said a few words in honor of our launch.

“I grew up in this community and have served it for much of my professional career in both government and as a lawyer. I trained as a lawyer at two big firms in Boston working for both innovative startups and publicly-traded companies, but I’m thrilled to be launching this new firm right here in my hometown,” said Aaron. “I’ve had the privilege of working with and being mentored by Scott Franklin in his firm and I’m honored to carry on his legacy into the future.”

Scott Franklin will continue to be of counsel, ensuring that Franklin & Frankel continues to benefit from his knowledge and experience. “I couldn’t be happier knowing that Aaron will be taking extraordinary care of my clients for many years to come, and that he will help move the law practice technologically into the 21st Century,” said Scott.

Franklin & Frankel will continue to benefit from the skill and experience of longtime paralegals Terri Dolecki, Kelly Finlay, and Krysta Menard-Tanguay who each worked with Scott for many years. Rounding out the team, the firm is pleased to announce the addition of attorney Suzanne Neville, who will serve the firm’s estate planning and real estate clients, and Tess Gagnon, who will be managing the firm’s marketing and operations.

Thank you to the West Hartford Chamber and to all our friends, family, clients, and fellow community members who came out to celebrate with us.
