Career
Worked at Thatcher & Lanza (Flemington, New Jersey) specializing in General Practice, Civil Litigation, Personal Injury, Products Liability, Negligence, Matrimonial, Real Estate, Public Utilities, Administrative Practice, Municipal Law, Environmental, Criminal Law, Trials and Appeals. (1924-1987)
The two original partners have been together 20 years. Thatcher & Lanza began as a general practice trial-orientated firm.
It has evolved into a multidimensional, sophisticated, often specialized law practice. The firm counsels municipalities, banks, public utilities and a sheriff's department. It practices before many boards and administrative agencies while still aware of the needs of the evolving suburban community which nurtured it.
Although the firm devotes a large proportion of its resources to trial work, it strives to maintain a genuine cordiality for its clients while gaining the respect of its adversaries. John R. Lanza is certified by the New Jersey Supreme Court as a Civil Trial Attorney. Loyalty, trust and professionalism delivered unpretentiously characterize the firm.
