1997The second generation

In 1997, the firm’s leadership completed an internal ownership transition between the founding principals to a group of long-term employees to form the second generation of leadership.

2018Employee-owned

In 2018, MML&H converted to a full employee stock ownership program (ESOP) and began its third generation of leaders.

TodayOne name since 1968

In both cases when the ownership changed, the incoming leadership teams chose to keep the original name of the firm to honor its long-standing history. The most recent leadership of MML&H is determined to embrace the instilled values of ethics, professionalism and reputation as the guiding principles for the strategic advancement of the firm.

“In over 58 years of continuous business and working for over 1,000 different clients, we have earned a reputation for client service, ethics, and quality work. We’ve built up the knowledge base and skill set to continue that trend. It’s always exciting to build things, to solve problems, and help people, but the relationships with our clients are the best part. I always know that I can look a client in the eye and truthfully say that the staff of our firm has and will continue to give them our best work, every day.”
