Real Estate
The Western Massachusetts property market takes more than paperwork. It takes someone who knows Franklin County zoning, its titles, and how a closing actually gets to the Registry of Deeds.
Greenfield, Massachusetts · Franklin County
Steady counsel,
close to home.
Real estate closings, wills and estates, probate, and small business counsel for Franklin County, from the Greenfield office that has handled them for decades.
Gruber & Tripp, LLC is now Stillwater Law. Same office on Federal Street, same staff, same files. Gary Gruber has retired; Nathaniel Tripp continues the practice.
Practice Areas
Four kinds of work, done thoroughly.
Most matters that walk through the door in Greenfield fall into one of these. If yours doesn't, a phone call will tell you quickly whether this is the right office.
Wills, Trusts & Estate Planning
Peace of mind comes from knowing the family is protected. Massachusetts statutes translated into a plan you can actually follow, so a disability or a death does not become a legal crisis for the people you leave in charge.
Probate & Estate Administration
Losing someone is hard enough without the Probate Court on top of it. Executors and beneficiaries get a steady hand through the Franklin County Probate and Family Court.
Small Business Formation & Counsel
Small businesses are the backbone of this town. Outside general counsel for the enterprise that needs legal scaffolding to grow safely, from first filing to the hundredth contract.
Why local matters here
Franklin County is not a form you download.
Historic properties, municipal bylaws that vary town to town, and a Registry with its own way of doing things. A boots on the ground perspective that firms two hours east don't have.
Where the filings go

Nathaniel A. Tripp
Attorney at Law
Nate practices out of the same Federal Street office he has worked from for years, now under the Stillwater name. The work is deliberately general: the closing, the will, the estate, and the business next door. Clients call the office and reach the person handling their file.
