Results
Results matter — whether in a lawsuit, a bankruptcy, or a real estate or business transaction — there is no doubt about it. No matter how experienced a lawyer is and how good the customer service is, at the end of the day, everyone wants results.
From the initial contact from a potential new client or referral of a new matter from an old one, we focus on the end game and the best strategy to get there. Whether using traditional methods or unorthodox tactics, we will do our best to get you where you want to go.
Customer Service
We understand that even though we may have been involved in thousands of legal matters over the years, your legal matter may be the only one you ever have. We explain things patiently and thoroughly in plain language, to make sure you understand what’s going on and aren’t surprised or confused. If you don’t understand what’s going on, then we aren’t doing our job.
We are flexible with how we communicate with clients and try to respond quickly via your preferred method, whether it's in person, phone, text, email, or video. Whatever it takes is fine with us.
