The firm is grateful for Toni’s many contributions and technical insights, as well as her rapport with clients. Partner Roszel Thomsen says, “Always insightful, precise and practical, Toni’s counsel to the firm’s clients generated admiration and loyalty. All of us strive to emulate her sage advice, and we will miss her wisdom, experience and collegiality.”
