Our firm was founded upon the goal of avoiding the typical "law firm" approach to the practice of law, which is often incompatible with meeting the goals and expectations of small business, entrepreneurs, and individuals.

As a "law firm" attorney, Mr. Newcomb heard all the traditional complaints, such as:

• Lawyers are too expensive;
• My lawyer won't return my (numerous) phone calls; and
• The lawyer assigned to my case is new and doesn't know what he/she is doing.

After hearing these and other complaints over the years, Mr. Newcomb decided to form his own firm in order to provide his clients with a better experience.

Our approach to the practice of law is different (in a good way) than what many businesses have experienced from traditional law firms. In particular,

• Our rates are less than typical law firms. By reducing our overhead (i.e. eliminating the glass tower with marble floors), We are able to extend to our clients the cost savings. This also means we can devote more time to our clients' needs in order to be cost effective.
•  
• We also limit the number of clients to a manageable size to prevent client dissatisfaction and quick response.

We get to know and understand our clients legal needs at a deeper level than most attorneys.

We are highly skilled and dedicated to providing cost effective and responsive legal representation. We strive to give every client the personal attention they require and deserve by analyzing risk, weighing the benefits and identifying goals to help your business grow.
