“Steven has spent his entire information technology career serving law firms from coast to coast, so he brings a depth of knowledge about the unique needs and challenges of law firm IT,” said Scott Flichtbeil, Foster Garvey’s Chief Operating Officer. “His expertise will play a crucial role not only in helping us serve our clients, but also in ensuring Foster Garvey is on the leading edge of technology today and as we set our sights on future growth.”
