The Schulte-Eisenhandler Affiliation

Eisenhandler and Schulte operate separately and retain clients independently. Eisenhandler personnel are not employees of Schulte, and Schulte employees are not Eisenhandler employees. Schulte provides ongoing operational and strategic support to, and has an ownership interest in, Eisenhandler.

When desired by a client, Schulte and Eisenhandler provide a coordinated “design-through-execution” approach to projects.

Clients are free to engage Eisenhandler and/or Schulte, as they desire. Confidential client information held by Schulte and Eisenhandler is not shared with the other without the client’s written consent.
