Former Lake Como Mayor Brian Wilton has joined McCarter & English as a partner in the firm’s Newark office. A Lake Como resident who served as the borough’s popular mayor, Brian will now bring his extensive legal and government expertise to the firm’s expanding bipartisan Government Affairs practice.
“McCarter’s bipartisan approach and strong national platform made it an ideal place to continue my work in government and law,” said Brian. “I’m excited for this new chapter, and I’ll always carry with me the lessons and values I gained from serving the people of Lake Como.”
Lake Como’s current Mayor Kevin Higgins praised Brian’s continued success.
“Brian’s leadership as mayor laid the groundwork for many of the things we’ve been able to build upon in Lake Como,” said Mayor Higgins. “He was deeply respected by residents, and we’re proud to see one of our own continue to achieve great things while still calling Lake Como home.”
