Tannenbaum Helpern Syracuse & Hirschtritt LLP

What Tannenbaum Helpern Syracuse & Hirschtritt LLP does

Tannenbaum Helpern Syracuse & Hirschtritt LLP is a New York-based, partner-owned limited liability partnership founded in 1978, operating as a full-service law firm from its sole office at 900 Third Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. The firm fields approximately 70 attorneys delivering counsel across 16 practice areas — including Construction & Design, Corporate, Cybersecurity and Data Privacy, Distribution/Franchising/E-Commerce, Employment, Intellectual Property, Investment Management, Litigation, Real Estate, Securities Enforcement, Sustainability, Tax, Trusts and Estates, and White Collar Defense — and across 11 industry verticals such as Real Estate, Food & Beverage, Private Investment Funds, Cannabis, Health and Life Sciences, Hospitality, Non-Profit Organizations, Professional Service Firms, Staffing, and Technology.

The firm's "technology" is its human-capital platform: deep, multi-decade practitioner expertise cross-mapped against practice and industry matrices, supplemented by owned thought-leadership channels including industry-vertical content hubs (CannaBizDisputes, Construction Law Insider, Criminal Justice Insider, The Ownership Paradox, Trusts & Estates Insider) and the CyberTalk vlog. It does not operate a software product; instead, service delivery is enabled by resource products such as the Monthly HR Support retainer program and the Commercial Division Practice Guide.

Revenue mechanics follow a traditional professional-services model — primarily fee-for-service legal counsel on hourly or matter-based pricing — with select subscription-style offerings (Monthly HR Support). The go-to-market is enterprise field sales through direct attorney engagement, client referrals, and industry reputation. Named clients include a National REIT, Fortune 500 beverage companies, public/private developers, state agencies, and design professionals. The firm has no disclosed external funding, no parent company, and no acquisition history; it is independently held by its partners.
