What Lemery Greisler does

Lemery Greisler LLC is a full-service business law firm headquartered in Saratoga Springs, New York, with a second office in Albany. Founded in 1999 and operating for 25 years, the firm serves FORTUNE 500 companies, financial institutions, real estate developers, non-profit organizations, healthcare providers, municipalities, and individuals across 16 distinct practice areas including corporate and M&A, banking and commercial finance, bankruptcy and foreclosure, economic development, employment law, healthcare, intellectual property and technology, land use and zoning, litigation, non-profit, professional licensing, public finance, real estate law, tax, and trust and estate planning. The firm is AV-rated by Martindale-Hubbell and is nationally recognized for its public finance and bond counsel work, having served as bond counsel to over 80 school districts and municipalities and representing seven Industrial Development Agencies.

The firm's revenue is generated through professional services fees — billable legal work across corporate, transactional, regulatory, and litigation matters — with engagement terms based on hourly rates, flat fees, or contingency arrangements depending on practice area. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven: attorneys serve as the primary sales force through direct client engagement, professional networking, referrals, and community involvement across more than 40 organizations in the Capital District. The firm is member-owned (LLC, partner-attorneys are members), privately held with no external equity, and operates across upstate New York with practice reach extending to New York City, the broader Northeast, and occasionally beyond U.S. borders via local-counsel arrangements.

Underlying technology is limited to standard legal practice infrastructure: secure encrypted communications, collaborative web platforms, and document management systems. No proprietary technology platform, AI/ML capabilities, or differentiated technical tooling is disclosed. The firm's 16 named attorneys (members, principals, and associates) cover the practice spectrum, with senior partners holding trustee appointments (Chapter 7 Panel Trustee, Subchapter V Trustee in the Northern District of New York and District of Vermont), adjunct faculty positions, and board roles across local economic-development and preservation organizations.
