Our firm believes that great culture starts with a compelling vision shared by all. We upended the traditional law firm model to create a firm based on roles and abilities as opposed to seniority. In addition to a team-based structure, we focus our firm on the following core values:

“Great attitude, puts others first” (Service) - “Driven to make an impact” (Passion) - “Courage to do the right thing” (Courage) - “Someone you can count on” (Commitment) - “Always open to a better way” (Innovation)

That approach, and figuring out our core values and how to implement them, came from lessons learned over many years. Each organization is unique, and dynamic; however, there are some common truths and roadblocks that each face. The true test is how we approach each situation with integrity and move toward success.

In building and sustaining a healthy workplace culture, it’s necessary to ask the question, “Are we a team here, or are we a family?” A team has a common goal. When we put in the time, the team shares in the fruits of the labor, and that the commitment to that common goal benefits everyone.
