For more than 70 years, Stark & Stark has long been respected for its quality work and caring attitude toward its clients. Established in Trenton in 1933 by Sidney Stark, joined by his brother Amel in 1939, the firm practiced primarily commercial and business law. Over the years, the practice expanded to include the needs of individuals requiring courtroom expertise. By the early 1980s the firm had 12 attorneys and moved to larger offices on Franklin Corner Road in Lawrenceville. Rapid growth necessitated another move in 1986 to still larger offices in the Princeton Pike Corporate Center, where the firm is today.
