The firm is pleased to share Joseph A. Fitzpatrick, Jr. and Lauren L. Sorrentino have been recognized in the 2027 edition of Pennsylvania’s Best Lawyers, an annual publication by Best Lawyers© once again.
Joseph A. Fitzpatrick, Jr. is a founding member and shareholder of the firm and is recognized as one of Eastern Pennsylvania’s premier land use and development attorneys. In addition to land use and development, Mr. Fitzpatrick’s practice includes real estate, zoning and subdivision, commercial transactions, and general business representation. He has led clients’ development teams in advancing major commercial, industrial and residential projects including large regional corporate centers, office parks, retail and lifestyle centers, delivery and fulfillment operations, quarry and materials facilities, manufacturing communications installations and warehousing and distribution centers. Mr. Fitzpatrick handles the permitting and development of single family home subdivisions, condominiums, and multifamily housing. He represents private interests regarding claims, negotiations and entitlements matters with governmental agencies at the federal, state and local levels, and actively represents land owners in eminent domain situations.
As chair of the firm’s Family Law practice, Lauren Sorrentino guides clients through divorce, custody and support matters that often involve closely held businesses, layered financial interests, professional reputations and deeply personal family concerns. Her strength is helping clients see clearly when the stakes feel anything but simple. Lauren brings discretion, strategy and steady judgment to each matter, knowing when to negotiate, when to press and when to help a client focus past the emotion of the moment and build toward a stronger next chapter. Within the firm, Lauren leads the same way she practices: thoughtfully, directly and with purpose. She mentors younger attorneys, strengthens the family law team and helps shape a practice known for handling sensitive matters with both sophistication and humanity.
Selection to the 2027 edition is based entirely on peer review, recognizing attorneys who have earned high regard among their peers for their professional abilities and accomplishments. Joe has been recognized by The Best Lawyers in America since 2015, while Lauren has been recognized since 2018.
Congratulations to Joe and Lauren on this well-deserved recognition!
