Harrington, Hoppe & Mitchell today announced congratulations to HHM attorney J. Bradley Allison, who will leave the firm at the end of 2010 to become a full-time magistrate in the Columbiana County common pleas court.

“It is a gratifying moment for our firm to see one of our attorneys hand-picked for full-time public service, and we congratulate Brad on this opportunity,” said Shawna L. L’Italien, a member in HHM’s Salem office.

Allison will be working with L’Italien and HHM attorneys Neil H. Maxwell and Christopher J. Baronzzi to transition Allison’s client responsibilities in the upcoming weeks. Allison has been with HHM for nearly two years.

“It has been a pleasure to work with such a strong, community-oriented law firm,” Allison said. “The individuals and businesses who worked with me will be very well served by our other attorneys, and we are looking forward to a smooth transition.”

Columbiana County Common Pleas Judge Scott Washam, who selected Allison for the magistrate’s position, is also a former HHM lawyer.
