“Shannon’s expertise will be a key asset to our growing firm,” says Chief Executive Officer, Todd Sivia. “With our recent growth, it’s only natural for us to expand our legal team. Someone of her caliber will be a huge asset to the firm.”

Sivia Law recently announced a merger with attorney Leonard Berg out of East Alton, IL. The firm will now be staffing two locations, Bethalto and Edwardsville, along with an appointment only location in St. Louis, MO. The firm quickly realized some of the effects of rapid growth and how it needed to get back to client focus in order to continue on a path of success.

“I’m thrilled to join such an exceptional team of attorneys,” said Bradford. “My hope is to contribute my skills and abilities to get them the quality legal documents they need in a timely manner.”
