Ernest J. Sargeant of Wellesley Hills, the former managing partner of Ropes & Gray and law lecturer at Harvard Law School and Boston College Law School, died on Jan. 26, 2008. He was 89.
Mr. Sargeant earned his bachelor’s degree from Harvard College in 1940. After two years at Harvard Law School, he was inducted into the U.S. Army in July 1942. After completing officer’s training, he was a captain stationed in New Dehli, India. He completed his legal studies at Harvard in 1947 and joined Ropes & Gray. His time at the firm was interrupted during the Korean War, when he spent parts of two years in the Office of the Army Department Counselor in the Pentagon. After his return to Ropes & Gray, he was elected to partnership in 1956.
Mr. Sargeant was a lecturer at Harvard Law School from 1961-62 and again from 1965-92. During that time, he taught a seminar on corporate mergers and acquisitions in which Brad Malt, now the chairman of Ropes & Gray, was enrolled. Mr. Malt recalls his apprehension when he appeared in Mr. Sargeant’s class after accepting an offer to become a full-time associate at Ropes & Gray. “It was very scary for all of us — here was the managing partner of Ropes & Gray coming over to teach our class,” recalled Mr. Malt. “But Ernie was amazing. He seemed to have limitless patience for all of the naïve questions we asked, and he always made the class highly topical by teaching from deals in the news rather than from textbooks.” Mr. Sargeant was also an adjunct professor at Boston College Law School from 1990-98.
At Ropes & Gray, Mr. Sargeant became the firm’s managing partner in 1979 and served in that capacity for five years. He was respected and admired throughout the firm. For example, when Mr. Malt was a new associate, Ernie and his wife, Helene, invited the entire class of first-year associates to a dinner party at their Wellesley home. “That was typical of his accessibility and interest in nurturing young lawyers, even as managing partner,” said Mr. Malt. “He had a wonderful piece of advice that I remember to this day. Ernie said that a lawyer’s career is like an hourglass — it starts with a broad perspective for training, then narrows down to a chosen specialty before broadening once again to include a career’s worth of experience.”
Mr. Sargeant is survived by his wife of 64 years, Helene (Kazanjian) Sargeant; his sister, Louise Brown of Anacortes, Wash.; his brother, James of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada; and many nieces and nephews.
A Memorial Service will be held at the Memorial Church at Harvard College on Saturday, Feb. 2, at 2 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be made to the Ernest J. Sargeant Scholarship Fund at The Harvard College Fund, 124 Mount Auburn St., Cambridge, MA 02138.
Arrangements are under the direction of J.S. Waterman & Sons & Waring Wellesley, 781-235-4110.
