How We Approach Personal Law Issues
We handle personal legal issues for our clients with direct communication, clear plans of action and professionalism. We educate our clients on what we and they can control, what no one can control or change and what the law requires. Our attorneys recognize that our clients have lives outside of the legal issues we are handling for them. In light of this, our attorneys set reasonable expectations regarding client involvement, potential timelines and possible outcomes.
We provide timely and thorough communication to our clients on all developments and actions occurring in their case. As a result, clients can see the relationship between what we bill for our time and what they receive. Additionally, we are able to minimize ancillary case costs by utilizing the appropriate staff to accomplish non-attorney functions.

Legal Advice & Case Evaluations
When you contact our firm to discuss a legal matter we will schedule a one hour meeting at our office with one of our attorneys at a reduced ‘evaluation rate’. In some cases your matter can be handled within the initial meeting, especially if all you need is our advice and ideas. Otherwise, you and our attorney(s) will jointly determine a course of action based on your needs, our assessment of your legal position and our evaluation of our firm’s suitability to handle your issue. Prior to beginning any extended representation on your behalf, our attorneys will prepare an engagement agreement that defines our course of action and fee structure.
Call our office to schedule time to speak with one of our attorneys and discuss your needs.
