Bulkley Richardson is pleased to announce that Sarah Willey has been promoted to Partner in the firm’s Business/Finance Department and Stephen Holstrom has been promoted to Counsel in the firm’s Litigation Department, effective January 1, 2023.

Sarah’s practice includes a range of business services, including advising clients in business formation, mergers and acquisitions, business succession planning, and corporate structuring of businesses in regulated industries, including cannabis.  She also represents employers in a variety of matters before the MCAD, EEOC, and State and Federal courts, and counsels clients in protecting and maximizing their intellectual property via trademarks, copyrights, and licensing agreements.
