Our Principles
These are the principles by which we strive to operate:
Do everything with excellence. Effective advocacy depends on getting the details right. There is no task that is unimportant.
Fortune favors the bold diligent. There is a place for bold action. But cases are won or lost based on counsel’s diligence. Preparation is the key. Dig deeper. Work harder. The hand of the diligent will rule.
Do your fighting in the courtroom. Don’t waste time (and money) wrangling with opposing counsel. Cooperate whenever possible. Stand firm where it makes sense. Go to the mat when necessary. Any fool can start a quarrel. A gentle word turns away wrath.
Let your yes be yes. The idea that your word is your bond may seem quaint these days. But credibility and trustworthiness still have traction in the legal world.
Fight by the rules. Litigation is war, civilized by rules. No one wins by breaking the rules. Do the right thing.
Do not go hastily to court. Litigation is expensive. Discovery is invasive. If possible, resolve your case in private. Negotiate first. Go to court only when thoroughly prepared.
Be humble. Be teachable. Listen to others. By wise counsel wage war. Being convinced that you’re always right ends in strife and mistakes. Pride leads to destruction.
