Boutique is Better – Big Firm Equity Switches Stakes to Somerville


Lyons & Associates, P.C. is a rapidly growing boutique firm with its initial roots in matrimonial and family law. Recently, it also added practice areas of business and civil litigation, wills/trust/estates, real estate, elder law, and guardianship matters. Eric Marcy will join the firm as Chair of the brand new Criminal and Complex Litigation Department.

Marcy is not alone in re-examining what matters most. As of November 2021, the United States was seeing over 4 million people per month change their jobs. The COVID pandemic has dramatically altered the workplace landscape. People are reassessing and re-thinking their work and life goals. People are recognizing that dynamic change is positive and that new possibilities improve the quality of life and enthusiasm one has for one’s career.

“We have been really lucky here at Lyons & Associates,” says Managing Partner Theresa A. Lyons, Esq. who also holds a Master’s Degree in Social Work. “While many other law firms were forced to layoff lawyers, we continue to grow. It’s a testament to how hard our entire team works, as well as the reputational capital we have accumulated over the years that is now paying dividends exponentially. We are super excited to have Eric Marcy join our team.”

Eric Marcy himself enjoys a strong reputation — “I have worked in the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office, the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General, and many years as a Shareholder at the Wilentz Firm working on a wide variety of criminal, civil, class action, appellate, and administrative law cases. What I have learned is that each case that I handle should be treated as the most important case. Clients experience one of the most stressful times of their life. Clients’ economic survival and oftentimes their liberty are in the hands of counsel. Clients deserve and are entitled to the absolute commitment and empathy from their attorney and I work to meet that standard with each and every client.”

Eric will work primarily out of the firm’s Somerville and Morristown offices, although his practice crosses the entire State of New Jersey, including federal courts.
