Preserving & Protecting Your Family’s Assets & Legacy

Atlas Law Group Merger Information

Thank you for visiting the website of Atlas Law Group.

Atlas Law Group has recently merged with Futterman Lanza, LLP. Please take a moment to read the information below that Howard J. Atlas shared with his clients containing additional details about the merger.

As your Elder law and Estate planning attorney, I have provided you with important advice and planning documents to protect your assets and minimize taxes, expenses and issues for you and your family in the event of a future illness, incapacity or demise.
Having practiced law for 37 years, and just recently celebrated my 26th anniversary of my own law practice, I realized that planning was necessary for myself and my law firm in the event something happened to me. If I had no plan in place, the consequences would be devastating for my family, my staff and my clients.

I decided the best option would be to find another law firm to merge with my practice. The challenge was to find a firm that not only held the same morals, values and philosophy as my own, but could also provide my clients with the same level of personalized and compassionate service. After a two-year search and comprehensive vetting process with several law firms, I am excited to announce that I have found the law firm that meets all the important criteria needed to ensure that my clients, staff and my legacy would be in the best hands.

Effective April 1, 2025, the Atlas Law Group will be merging with Futterman Lanza, LLP. The firm, headed by Aaron Futterman and Ronald Lanza, was established in 2004 and is a well-respected and experienced Elder and Estate Planning law firm. Presently, Futterman Lanza is comprised of 14 attorneys, with offices located in Smithtown, Bay Shore and Garden City.

I am also pleased to announce that I will be continuing practicing law as a Partner in Futterman Lanza, LLP. My entire dedicated staff and I will remain in our current Melville office as an additional office of Futterman Lanza, LLP.

If you have any questions or concerns about the merger, please do not hesitate to contact me. I hope and pray that you will embrace this wonderful news. I look forward to continuing to provide you and your family with the personalized service and cutting-edge advice that you have been accustomed to and truly deserve.
Warmest Regards,
Howard J. Atlas

An Elder Law And Estate Planning Law Firm On Your Side.
