Summary: After 26 years with Donald Mrozek at the lead, Hinshaw & Culbertson is embarking on a new adventure with the leadership of Kevin Burke.
In a press release from the Hinshaw & Culbertson, the law firm announced they are having a change of leadership. Donald L. Mrozek decided to step down after being the Chairman of Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP since 1989. Kevin Joseph Burke has been elected to fill the position.
