Its bounteous seed production, its propensity for sprouting up in unexpected places, such as the seashore, cliffs, and rustic paths, and its relative rarity make it a viable metaphor for creativity, ingenuity, and "out-of-the-box" thinking.</p> <p>Perhaps that is the reason that "Polycarpon" was the cable address of the former Admiralty firm founded by C.C. Burlingham (1858-1959), advisor and confidant of Mayors, Governors, and Presidents, a firm renown for its representation, among others, of the owners of the <i>Titanic</i>, the <i>Morro Castle</i>, and the <i>Andrea Doria.</i></p> <p>In time of crisis and need, "Cable: Polycarpon" was the first resort of international and maritime clients requiring counsel who could bring to bear on their legal concerns the utmost in ingenuity and creativity, and a proven ability to think outside the box. </p> <p>Bynane & Co was conceived in the same spirit, the spirit of "Polycarpon". We invite you to make  E-mail: Polycarpon.Com your first resort when your legal concerns would benefit from creative solutions and "out-of-the-box" thinking. </p> </td> <td valign="top" bgcolor="#000066">&nbsp;</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="footer">&copy; Copyright 2010.
