I Wish You Could See Me Now

A letter to Lois Cohen, friend and family to Rothkoff Law Group, written by her grandson, Jared Fisch. Hi Bubbie, It’s me, Jared, your second of four grandsons. You'd be amazed by how tall Cameron and Jake have gotten. Jason started his first full-time job about two years ago, and now I graduated from college last month. There's so much to tell you about. I know you didn't have the opportunity to attend university and would have loved to live vicariously through me. I moved halfway across the country to attend the world's first and best journalism school at the [...]

Update on Rothkoff Law Group

We have attempted to provide some semblance of normalcy regarding our services and outreach after over 18 months of revamping business practices and our interactions with clients and our professional partners.

The Covid-19 pandemic has changed the way we live and communicate with one another in various ways, including scheduling virtual meetings, a significant reduction in travel, and reduction or elimination of large in-person gatherings. However, some important aspects of life have not changed, not all necessarily for the better. In late August, news broke that 91-year-old actor Ed Asner died. Asner became famous for his role as Lou Grant, the crusty newspaperman on the Mary Tyler Moore Show, then later as Lou Grant on his own TV drama from 1977-82. He was also the lovable voice of Carl in “Up,” [...]
