Our Common Values
We live here. We work here. We care passionately about our clients. We strive mightily to do well by always doing good. Our pro bono and community volunteer work changes lives because that’s the only way to make meaningful change. If it’s all about money, what’s it all about? We never forget that we’re no better, no busier, and no more important that the person at the other end of that call.
We strive to always put our client’s interests first and, by doing so, serve the cause of justice. Since 1996, we’ve passionately pursued cases that made a difference for the consumers for whom we work. That means always answering the phone even when it’s hard. Always returning calls, even when the news isn’t great. Never sugarcoating the reality of a consumer’s situation but always reminding ourselves of the humilty of our postion. Never forgetting that being a lawyer is a privilege and not a right. Always trying to be of help to those whose cases we cannot take by sending them to the right lawyer whenever possible.
And, always putting our clients first because without them there is no success.
