Foley Hoag LLP announced today that Anton Levchik, CPA, has joined the firm as Chief Financial Officer, resident in the New York office.
Levchik joins Foley Hoag after serving as the Chief Financial Officer at another global law firm. Before that, he held top finance roles at firms in the engineering and legal industries. Levchik earned a B.S. degree in Accounting from Fordham University, and an M.B.A. degree in Management and Strategy from the New York University Stern School of Business.
As CFO, Levchik will bring a strategic focus to the firm's finance function, and will collaborate closely with firm leadership. He will lead and be responsible for all aspects of Foley Hoag's financial operations, overseeing accounting, finance, tax compliance, reporting, and treasury functions.
"I am eager to join Foley Hoag as CFO. The firm has a stellar reputation for its first-rate legal work and is widely recognized for its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion," Levchik said. "I am impressed with the firm's culture, entrepreneurialism, practice depth and client service focus."
The addition of Levchik in New York follows the arrival of legal industry veteran Diane Scheffler, who joined the firm in New York as Chief Operating Officer in October 2022. These hires, in addition to the 38 new attorneys who joined the firm's New York office over the past two years, further demonstrate the growth and vibrancy of the firm's New York office.
"Anton brings deep industry expertise from top performing firms, and we are excited to have him join our leadership team," said Chief Operating Officer Scheffler. "His reputation for providing innovative solutions and proven track record of success will help us advance our strategic goals and foster higher levels of efficiency in our financial operations."
