I am confident that Mike is the right person to lead this firm forward.” 

Mike Hodgins, the incoming Managing Partner, expressed his enthusiasm for the new role: “I am deeply humbled by the trust placed in me by my colleagues and excited to build on the legacy left by David and others before him. Eaton Peabody has long been committed to serving people and businesses with legal challenges from our multiple offices here in Maine, and I look forward to leading the firm in its next chapter. Together, we will continue to innovate, adapt, and deliver the high level of service our clients expect and deserve.”
