VERRILL DANA
PORTLAND, MAINE
When Rob Tod founded Maine’s Allagash Brewing Co. in 1994, he needed a law
firm to help with the legalities of starting a new business. Walking into Verrill
Dana, Tod felt a little out of place with his jeans, flannel and long hair. However,
“They made me feel very comfortable from day one and treated me with a ton of
respect,” he says. He’s been with Verrill Dana since. He’s used several attorneys
for legal matters such as property transactions, corporate documents, employee
benefits counseling, bank loan closings and protection of intellectual property
such as beer names, graphics and the shape of the Allagash tap handle.
“Regardless of whether it’s an employee issue or a bank loan closing or a real
estate deal, they are very responsive,” says Tod.
