Curtin & Heefner

What Curtin & Heefner does

Curtin & Heefner LLP is a private regional law firm organized as a Pennsylvania limited liability partnership, headquartered in Yardley, PA with additional offices in Doylestown, Berwyn, and Princeton, NJ. The firm provides legal representation across 17 practice areas — including commercial litigation, insurance defense, employment and labor, construction, environmental, personal injury, family law, real estate, public-sector/municipal law, and wills/trusts/estates — serving a diversified base of for-profit businesses, municipalities, individuals, contractors, insurance carriers, and nonprofits throughout the Delaware Valley and broader mid-Atlantic region.

The firm operates on a traditional professional-services model with approximately 25–35 attorneys and 51–100 total employees across four physical offices, delivering work via hourly billing, contingency arrangements, flat fees, and retainers. Underlying technology is generic law-firm practice and case management software; there is no proprietary product, app, or API offering, and no disclosed AI/ML capability. Revenue is generated through direct client engagement, attorney-reputation-driven referrals, bar association networks, and an expanding social media and content presence, with no external investors, parent company, or institutional ownership.

The business is led by Managing Partner Frank S. Guarrieri (with the firm for 45 years) alongside an expanded management team added in 2015, and is differentiated primarily by long-tenured partner relationships, AV Preeminent and Super Lawyer recognitions, embedded insurance-carrier and municipal relationships, and decades of community involvement in Bucks County — including the recently launched CH-Cares initiative.
