Hale and Dorr launches "Silver Bridge Advisors"

Hale and Dorr Wealth Advisors, a financial advising firm in Boston, announced today that it is changing its name to Silver Bridge Advisors in an effort to better reflect its position as an independent, objective wealth advisory boutique.

Silver Bridge Advisors assists individuals and families in making sound decisions about their wealth. The company provides clients with personalized service, access to industry talent, a broad-based set of traditional and alternative investment strategies, enhanced client reporting capabilities and customized solutions.

The name Silver Bridge Advisors was selected because it reflects the distinct characteristics of the firm.

"'Silver' was chosen to honor the firm's 80-year history and depth of expertise and experience in working with multi-generational families, while 'Bridge' connects this lasting tradition to its team of new talent," Stephen Prostano, president and chief operating officer, said in a statement.

Silver Bridge Advisors will still be affiliated with law firm WilmerHale, which has offices in Boston.
