"We are truly honored to have these fine attorneys join our ranks," said RCCB Managing Partner, John E. Royer, Jr. "Attracting attorneys with David’s and Gary’s well-earned reputations and invaluable perspectives will accelerate RCCB’s growth and bolster the exceptional team of business-minded attorneys at the firm.”

“In my earliest meetings with RCCB, I felt a level of comfort and trust and knew this is where I wanted to continue practicing law,” said Mr. Fineman. “The RCCB team is interested in seeing everyone around them succeed, and that’s very important to me. I believe my experience and connections in the business and civic community will support the culture they have established and help fuel the firm’s impressive growth. Alternatively, I will be able to support my clients in new ways by working closely with this team of talented attorneys.”
Mr. Krimstock, also formerly a partner at Fineman Krekstein & Harris, concentrates his legal practice on real estate and business transactions, and litigation, with a focus on community association law, tax assessment appeals, zoning, business disputes, and administrative regulatory issues.
