Arpin Group has appointed its chief legal officer, Marco P. Uriati, to the position of chief operating officer. He will retain both titles.
Marco has served as chief legal officer since 2014, as general counsel since 2007, and previously as outside legal counsel, beginning in 1999. In addition to his role as COO, Marco is the current chairman of the Arpin Group management committee.
"Marco's diverse professional background and long history with Arpin Group make him uniquely suited to assume his new position as COO," said David Arpin, President and CEO of Arpin Group. "Marco is an accomplished, results-driven person. He possesses a wealth of industry knowledge and experience in the areas of operations, strategic planning, risk management and, of course, the law. We are especially pleased to have such a sharp and devoted individual as Marco on our executive team."
Marco Uriati is the immediate past chairman, and current member, of the Legal Advisory Council of the American Moving and Storage Association. Before joining Arpin in February 2007, he enjoyed a successful private practice as a shareholder of the venerable Rhode Island firm of Roberts, Carroll, Feldstein & Peirce. During that time, he practiced in both the corporate and litigation arenas. His areas of practice included transportation law, business law, complex civil litigation, commercial real estate law, public affairs and insurance law.
