In 1919, Simon Beizer opened a law office at 50 State Street in Hartford. Shortly thereafter, he moved his office to 983 Main Street. This is the block that in former times housed Planter's Peanuts, Kay Jewelers, and the Strand Movie Theater. In 1931 or so, Simon was joined in the practice of law by his brother Morris. They remained at 983 Main Street as Beizer & Beizer until about 1943, when they moved the office to 75 Pearl Street. In May of 2011, Kate left to strike out on her own. The firm changed its name to John Q. Gale, LLC.
