Weir Greenblatt Pierce LLP (WGP) is pleased to announce it has combined with BorgerMatez, P.A. (Borger Matez), a highly regarded New Jersey divorce and family law firm effective January 1, 2024. All five attorneys, Gary Borger, Bruce Matez, Deena Betze, Mary Cay Trace, and Giovanna Lombardo, and staff from BorgerMatez will join WGP in its Haddonfield, New Jersey office. The combined firm will continue to operate as Weir Greenblatt Pierce LLP.
WGP is known for providing superior representation to individuals, businesses, and financial institutions in business, commercial, criminal, employment, family, personal injury, and civil rights matters. Adding the BorgerMatez team expands WGP’s family law practice into South Jersey, allowing WGP to better serve its New Jersey clients.
The combination is formed out of a longstanding respect for each other’s practice and a friendship among the lawyers of the two firms. WGP Managing Partner, Walter Weir Jr., and BorgerMatez Founding Partner, Gary L. Borger, graduated law school together, after both having served in the military during the Vietnam war. They have always had great admiration and respect for each other. Partners Ron Greenblatt of WGP and Bruce P. Matez of BorgerMatez have also had a friendship and professional relationship for almost thirty years.
Walter Weir, Jr. said, “Gary and his firm share the same principles as WGP. Both firms pride themselves on attentiveness and responsiveness to their clients and achieving desired results in even the most complex or contentious matters in an efficient and caring fashion. I have known Gary for over 50 years and have long admired his character, ability, and the high level with which the BorgerMatez team practices law. Adding the BorgerMatez team to WGP will allow us to better serve our clients in New Jersey by adding to our family law practice. We’re thrilled and grateful to have this opportunity to better serve our clients and the community.”
Gary Borger added, “Combining with WGP will give our clients access to WGP’s resources, its incredible, experienced lawyers, and the ability to meet our clients’ needs in all areas of the law. My partners, Bruce, Deena, and I have great respect for Walter, and the WGP firm, so the decision to combine was an easy one.”
In January, the attorneys and staff of BorgerMatez will move to WGP’s Haddonfield office located at 35 East Kings Highway, Suite 200 in Haddonfield, New Jersey 08033. Walter Weir Jr. will continue to serve as WGP’s Managing Partner.
