The people on your side
Our attorneys
Eleanor Whitman
Family and estate law. Known across Burlington County for steady, clear-eyed guidance through divorce, custody, and estate matters, and for treating every client like her only one.
James Hale
Real estate, business, and personal injury. Practical, plain-spoken counsel for closings, contracts, and claims throughout South Jersey, with a courtroom record to match.
A small firm, by design.
Whitman & Hale is not a billboard practice. We are two senior attorneys and a close team who take a limited number of matters, so yours gets the attention it deserves.
We would rather represent a handful of clients well than a hundred in a hurry.
That means you reach a person, not a call center, and your case is handled by someone who knows it cold, start to finish.
