Company History

The Firm's founding partners, Nathan E. Gillin and S. Dell Scott, commenced practicing law in 1932 and 1948, respectively. In 1958, they formed the law firm of Gillin & Scott. Glenn M. Alperstein joined them in 1962 and in 1966 became a partner. Joel M. Simon joined in 1978 and became a partner in 1989. The Firm continued to practice under the name of Gillin, Scott, Alperstein, Glantz, Simon & Nielsen, A Law Corporation until March 31, 2000 at which time the members voluntarily separated. Alperstein, Simon, Farkas, Gillin & Scott, LLP is one of two successor law firms resulting from the voluntary separation, effective as of April 1, 2000. Scott M. Farkas joined the Firm in 2001 and today carries on the excellent estate planning services provided by the Firm for over forty years.

The members of Alperstein, Simon, Farkas, Gillin & Scott, LLP perform a wide range of legal services. The attorneys and staff employees have a 20-year average length of continuous employment with the firm; however, due to the complexity of our system of laws, each of its attorneys tend to concentrate in certain areas, specifically estate and gift tax planning and tax controversy matters, probate, trust law, real estate and business litigation and transactional matters. Some of these areas overlap, thereby requiring the services of more than one of its members. This coordination provides the client with the best possible legal advice and documentation, consistent with sound business and professional practice.
