My Name is Jon H. Kurland and I live at 17 Mansfield Drive with my wife of 37 years, Saralyn (Sara) Kurland. We have 2 children, Rachel and Scott.
I have been a resident of Chelmsford since 1991. We chose Chelmsford because we were looking for a quality education for our children in a community that was affordable.
I am an Attorney and Managing Partner at Kurland & Grossman, PC which was established in Lowell in 1979 and relocated to Chelmsford in 1994.
