When Mark Shipman, his son, and two other lawyers they worked with in Farmington decided to launch a new firm, the first question they asked was, “How fast can we call David Shaiken?”
Shaiken, a creditors rights and bankruptcy lawyer who most recently ran a solo practice in Glastonbury and Storrs, had been mentored by the elder Shipman more than 20 years ago. Shaiken also worked for Shipman’s prior firm from 2003 to 2005. After Shaiken left to join Reid and Riege in 2006, Mark Shipman said he always had it in his mind that they might work together again.
