About the Firm

McLaughlin & Nardi, LLC is a full service law firm. We are here to help you solve your problems.

The genesis of the firm occurred almost two decades ago. Frank Nardi and Maurice McLaughlin met each other on their first night of law school. It was the beginning of a beautiful friendship, both personal and professional.

After law school, Frank developed his legal practice, specializing in estate planning, tax, real estate and commercial transactions, Frank also became a certified public accountant and practiced as an accountant with his father, Frank, Sr. Maurice practiced complex litigation at a large firm in Northeastern New Jersey and served as an adjunct professor at Fairleigh Dickenson University.

Although they practiced in separate offices, Maurice and Frank continued to work together on many cases. When they did, they saw how complimentary their practices were and respected each other’s work. It was only natural that they decided to work together, so they merged their practices and formed McLaughlin & Nardi, LLC.

Since then, Jennifer Meusel and Daniel Sexton have both joined the firm as of bringing with them decades of legal experience. Most of our permanent staff have worked with us either here or at other firms for many years. What has kept us together with them is their professionalism, intelligence, loyalty and commitment to our clients. We are also proud of our program of hiring law students. We strive to retain talented students who hopefully will grow with us. They gain experience in the practice of law and we are rejuvenated by their enthusiasm.

We are joined by our commitment to our clients. We focus on two primary areas. First, we help our clients plan to run their lives and businesses so that they can maximize their benefits and income while avoiding, to the extent possible, costs, problems and legal disputes. Second, when the problems do arise, we evaluate the problems to determine the best possible outcome with the minimum cost and then we relentlessly pursue it. Toward this end, we are highly experienced negotiators and litigators. In all cases we focus on what is in the best interest of our clients.

We focus on achieving professional excellence by the most cost-effective means. We combine “big firm” expertise and support with the personalized service and intimacy of a “small firm.”

Additionally, the firm is committed to serving the public interest. All of the firm’s attorneys are involved in public service. The firm’s attorneys serve in various professional, religious, charitable, civic and professional organizations. Many currently or in the past have served in government either in the military or civilian spheres. We perform significant pro bono legal services for people of lesser means.

We take pride in the fact that we provide high quality work to obtain the best possible results for our clients. We are also proud that most of our new clients are referred by current clients. The confidence in us which this demonstrates gives us satisfaction which is surpassed only by the satisfaction we get by obtaining positive results for you.
