  • Flink Smith is proud to announce the completion of a major renovation to our Lake Placid office.  Situated on Main Street in the heart of Lake Placid and just down the road from the local courthouse, the location has always been a strong point for Flink Smith.  Now, the new office space matches the quality of the work product, meeting the expectations clients have come to expect from Flink Smith. 

  • The building’s exterior has undergone a major facelift, as it has been redesigned with a traditional Adirondack look, its cedar siding with dark trim standing out smartly next to the neighboring buildings.  The structure has been described as the nicest new building on Main Street by many Lake Placid natives.  The building now also houses other businesses, with Flink Smith the anchor tenant in the middle.   

  • The interior of 2557 Main Street has dramatically improved as well.  The new, larger office space features a beautiful new conference room, also decorated in a traditional Adirondack style, with red maple bookshelves and first edition, antique law books, in addition to offices and a spacious waiting room.  The deer antler chandelier is a must-see!  This new, full service office also has the technology to meet all of your legal needs.  If you would like to tour the new space, please give us a call.
