| The Mackenzie Hughes firm traces its roots back to 1884, and over the years, its client roster has read like a veritable “Who’s Who” of Central New York businesses, including the original New Process Gear, Smith Corona Typewriter and Standard Oil companies. Today, the firm’s client list includes successful regional and national companies and municipalities including the City of Syracuse, the Oneida Indian Nation, Pyramid Companies, State Farm Insurance, Eagle Comtronics, C&S Engineers, Stearns & Wheler, Royal-SunAlliance, Cazenovia College, the Fayetteville-Manlius School District, Ferris Industries and Omega Wire.
One of the firm’s namesakes, William A. Mackenzie practiced law in Syracuse for 49 years. The other, Senator John H. Hughes, was a dominant figure in Central New York civic and political affairs. Fully eight of the firm’s lawyers have been elected or appointed to judgeships. As one of the state’s most respected and influential business law firms, Mackenzie Hughes’ reputation is based on its exceptional expertise in business and corporate law, including labor, finance, immigration, health care, real estate, land use, environmental and municipal services law |
