Company History

Schwanewede took control of William H. Schwanewede Associates in the 1970’s. Schwanewede continued to provide municipal and private engineering services until the mid 1990’s.

David A. Hals founded Hals Engineering Company, P.C. in 1988. Hals Engineering provided civil engineering and land surveying services to private clients and developers throughout all of northern New Jersey.

In 1995, David Hals purchased William H. Schwanewede Associates and created Schwanewede/Hals Engineering. The firms combined many years of experience to better serve both, municipal and private clients.

In 2014, Joseph Vince became and principal and partner of Schwanewede/Hals Engineering. He helped expand the types of services offered and the geographic locations served.

In 2023, Schwanewede/Hals Engineering became known as Schwanewede Hals & Vince and relocated to our new office in Parsippany, New Jersey.
