Hinshaw partner Ross Manella was quoted in a recent Daily Business Review article about why some New York-based business owners and high-net-worth individuals are contemplating relocation to Florida, following the election of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

Ross said he has heard from several clients over the years regarding a potential relocation from New York, specifically due to tax considerations. With Mandani’s election, some of these people have decided to take action.
