Andrew Lawson Joins Porzio, Bromberg & Newman's Wealth Preservation Group, Expanding Multidisciplinary Trust, Estate, and Tax Capabilities

Porzio, Bromberg & Newman, P.C. is proud to announce that Andrew Lawson has joined the firm’s Wealth Preservation Group as Counsel. With extensive experience in taxation, estate planning, and business succession, Lawson brings a strategic, multidisciplinary approach to advising clients on complex personal and business matters.

He counsels high-net-worth individuals, fiduciaries, and business owners on trust structuring, estate administration, wealth transfer strategies, and dispute resolution. Lawson will play a key role in handling fiduciary litigation matters, representing clients in disputes involving trustees, beneficiaries, and complex trust and estate issues. His practice also includes advising closely held businesses on entity formation, succession planning, and the tax implications of ownership transitions, offering particular insight into transactional tax strategy.

“Andrew’s skillset is the perfect complement to our group’s multidisciplinary approach,” said Crystal West Edwards, Chair of the Personal Services Practice Group, which includes the Wealth Preservation and Personal Injury and Medical Malpractice Teams. “His sophisticated understanding of both individual and business tax strategies allows us to offer seamless, strategic counsel to clients at every stage of their financial and legal planning.”

Earlier in his career, Lawson worked in the tax advisory practices at Ernst & Young and PricewaterhouseCoopers, where he developed a strong foundation in federal, state, and local tax planning. He advised clients across industries—including healthcare, manufacturing, private equity, and education—on compliance, risk mitigation, and strategic tax solutions. He later transitioned into private legal practice, expanding his work in estate planning and tax controversy, and representing clients before the IRS and state taxing authorities.

Lawson’s arrival reinforces Porzio’s commitment to delivering comprehensive, forward-thinking solutions for clients facing trust, estate, and tax challenges.
