Welcome

Welcome to the law firm of Foster Zack Little Pasteur & Manning, P.C.  Our firm traces its history to 1883, when Rollin H. Person established a Lansing firm from which we trace our roots. We opened our Okemos office in January of 2001. 

The firm, which presently consists of 11 lawyers and a full complement of support staff, has lawyers who are licensed to practice law in the states of Florida, California and New York, as well as in Michigan.

The Firm’s philosophy is that excellent client service consists of a commitment to quality and the promise to find creative solutions to legal matters.  This conviction has guided the Firm throughout more than 160 collective years in the practice of law, and keeps the Firm at the forefront of business, tax, employment, real estate, intellectual property, commercial litigation, and trusts and estate planning law.

We counsel businesses, families and individuals with a commitment to the success and well being of the client.  We are problem solvers.  Our focus is to work directly, effectively and efficiently with clients to help them reach their desired outcome or goal.  While our core activity is legal services, we develop alliances with others rendering compatible and complimentary services and products to provide resources to serve our client's needs and we keep clients well informed as to the progress of their projects.  Our goal is that clients will find working with us to be an easy and productive experience.

We publish a newsletter several times a year to stay in touch with our clients.  Click here to link to our most recent newsletter.
