Phillips Lytle LLP announced yesterday it has appointed Douglas W. Dimitroff, a longtime partner with the law firm, to become its new managing partner. Building on a 33-year career with Phillips Lytle, Dimitroff will take over for Kevin M. Hogan who has served as managing partner since 2017, guiding the firm through a period of rapid growth and hiring.
“I am truly honored to lead this exceptional firm and continue our longstanding commitment to our clients, colleagues and community,” Dimitroff said. “Since joining Phillips Lytle, the firm has empowered me to deliver the highest levels of client service, inspire teams to exceed ambitious goals, and strengthen the communities where we live and work. In essence, that’s the Phillips Lytle Way — which will remain a hallmark of my tenure as managing partner. Kevin Hogan has been a tremendous leader for our firm, and I hope to build on his impact. Even with this transition, he thoughtfully created an excellent moment for a new managing partner to seamlessly step in and sustain our success.”
“When I informed our firm’s partners in early July that this would be my last year as managing partner, it certainly wasn’t an easy decision, but I recognized our unique opportunity to transition to new leadership,” Hogan said. “Now that we have successfully implemented and advanced our strategic development plan, prepared a new generation of leaders across practice areas and offices, and cultivated record growth in business and hiring, we’ve built an enduring foundation of stability and strength. It’s the perfect platform for Doug Dimitroff to build on all we’ve accomplished and take Phillips Lytle to even greater heights.”
