We’ve become one of the preeminent legal boutiques in the Midwest by creating a culture of connectedness with our clients, our attorneys, and our employees. We’ve achieved this through the 3-C’s of practice — Charisma, Competence, and Caring — and following the best traditions of the most prominent firms in the profession.

People with charisma exude a sense of presence and confidence that is coveted by those who lack it. Although some are born with it, most of us must work to acquire it. Charismatic leaders seek first to understand, then to be understood. Charisma attracts clients and, in the courtroom, jurors and judges are persuaded by it.

Competent lawyers are constantly learning, inquiring, and creating anew. Lawyers best demonstrate competence when they present a thoroughly prepared case. We work hard to exhibit our competence and make it clear to all that we are lawyers who really care and do our best.

For us, it’s about more than the bottom line. Lawyers who care have no difficulty helping people. The best way to know what people want is to ask them. Clients place their trust in us. And judges and jurors see that trust and want to do what is right for our clients.
