Our philosophy is to provide the highest quality legal services in a timely and cost-effective manner. Our attorneys and professional staff are guided by the following principles:

We are a small firm with big capabilities. We have the depth, resources and ability to handle the largest, most complex legal matters. At the same time however, we are not encumbered with excessive overhead or superfluous staff. This means we can charge less than firms providing comparable services. It also means we can respond to a client's needs promptly and personally.

The client comes first. We recognize that we are in business to serve our clients, and are committed to prompt, responsive, personal service. We provide legal advice in plain, understandable terms. We are sensitive to our clients' billing needs and can be flexible in crafting billing arrangements. Our firm offers contingent or fixed fees where appropriate, and all billing arrangements are discussed and agreed upon prior to commencing work. Our goal is to exceed client expectations and to thereby develop long-term relationships.

We are deal makers, not deal breakers. We seek to be a facilitator for our clients' objectives. Instead of finding problems, we strive to find solutions.

There is no learning curve. We are experienced in our respective practice areas. Whether it be in our ability to provide an immediate answer to a problem, adapt a contract to suit a client's particular needs, recognize the pertinent issues at the outset of a case, or fashion a proven remedy, our experience and commitment allows us to provide quality legal services quickly and cost effectively.

We are trained in the latest dispute resolution techniques. When a client is involved in a dispute with another party, sometimes a lawsuit is the best or only way to resolve it to the client's satisfaction. At other times, however, good lawyers must "think outside the box" in order to find the best solution for the client. For this reason, our firm is thoroughly experienced in all methods of alternative dispute resolution. Many of our attorneys serve as mediators and arbitrators, and are trained in the exciting new field known as "collaborative law."
