WAKELIN, HALLOCK & O’DONOVAN
PORTLAND, MAINE
The three attorneys at Wakelin, Hallock & O’Donovan have
a combined 75 years of experience. “We’re a small firm that
specializes in ERISA and employee benefits and can work
closely with the clients to provide the employee benefits
services that they need,” says Anne O’Donovan, a past
president of the Maine Employee Benefits Council. The firm
started out in 1985 with David Wakelin, who in recent years
was elected as an officer of the Maine Bar Foundation—
the branch of the state bar that gives Maine lawyers the
opportunity to contribute pro bono legal services.
