McConville Considine Cooman & Morin, P.C. is pleased to announce that our Managing Partner, Peter J. Weishaar, was named to the Rochester Business Journal’s “Power 50 Law List" for 2022.  The list includes leaders in Rochester’s law firms, courts and civil legal services providers.

“The people on this list help make sure the legal needs of Rochester’s companies and residents are met, and they have helped limit the disruption the COVID-19 pandemic has caused.  They are working to push the Rochester legal community forward during a time of uncertainty and change, and we are excited to see what they are able to accomplish going forward. “

Peter began his career as an associate with the firm in 1996.  He became a partner in 2004, and ten years later he became the firm’s fourth managing partner.   Peter is also an experienced trial lawyer, working with businesses, individuals, and municipalities to resolve disputes in state and federal trial and appellate courts.  He also serves as a trusted advisor to municipalities, including numerous fire districts, and towns, villages, planning and zoning boards, and other local governmental entities on an ongoing basis, and as special litigation counsel.

Peter has been named to The Daily Record’s “Power 20 Litigation” list, and has received The Daily Record’s Attorneys of the Year Leader in Law Award.  He has an AV Preeminent® peer review rating from Martindale-Hubbell, and he has been selected to The Best Lawyers in America® for Land Use and Zoning Law.
