He was separated from active duty in 1945 and was retired with the rank of lieutenant colonel in 1963. In 1945, he returned to Concord, where he became associated with the Morse and Grant law firm, eventually becoming the senior partner in the firm now known as Hall, Morse, Anderson, Miller and Spinella. He was a member of the Merrimack County Bar Association, the New Hampshire Bar Association and the American Bar Association. He was a past president and Paul Harris Fellow of the Concord Rotary Club.
