Biography

1958 - 2020

We are sad to report the passing of Tom Pinansky on April 8, 2020. 

Tom was Of Counsel to Preti Flaherty for many years and Senior Foreign Attorney at Barun Law in Seoul, Republic of Korea, splitting his time between Maine, Seoul, and Hawaii. He was a consummate international lawyer and trusted counselor and advisor of his many clients, possessing an acute sensitivity to and respect for cross-cultural nuances. Tom was a proud Mainer and had friends throughout the world. Among the many admirable aspects of Tom’s life was the fact that he was a true family man. 

Tom will be sorely missed as a colleague and friend.
