When you entrust Sulloway & Hollis with your legal matter, you are partnering with a team of responsive, proactive, and innovative legal professionals whose goal is to provide well-rounded legal advice, and help you advance your interests, and grow your business.

We are unwavering in our commitment to diversity and inclusion within our firm and the legal profession. We believe that a diverse workforce, where all of our colleagues feel respected, builds a stronger firm, and benefits clients and the wider community.

Sulloway & Hollis is a founding member of an initiative that joins five of New Hampshire’s leading law firms in a program that offers a ten-week, paid Summer Associate position during the summer after their first year of law school. The New Hampshire 1L Diversity Internship Program introduces participants from all over the country to life in the Granite State. The program provides a meaningful law firm experience to students who will contribute to the diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts of the firm and the legal community. We hope to continue that program regionally as we continue to expand our footprint in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and other New England States.

Our commitment to understanding our clients’ businesses and building strategic partnerships has remained steadfast for over a century. This commitment confirms our belief that Sulloway & Hollis is a Trusted Advisor for Changing Times.
