Distinct Services
What distinguishes my service from that of other lawyers:
- Extremely responsive, patient, and timely personal attention to client questions and matters
- Encourage open, frequent communication between attorney and client
- Appropriately aggressive in litigated matters, yet able to settle matters out of court when advantageous to my client
- Personally involved in every client matter, and do not delegate cases to inexperienced junior colleagues unfamiliar with the case or the law
- Access to an unusually broad and deep cultivated personal network of top-notch professionals, ranging from specialty practice lawyers (through helping to run a lawyers’ networking group) to accountants to most other service providers;
- Refrain from accepting matters outside my areas of practice (not a “jack-of-all-trades”); instead, energetically participate in the process of recommending other professionals appropriate to the particular task or matter, for the mutual benefit of the client and my network of professionals
- Zealous about fairness to clients in billing practices
- Ph.D. in Economics and, having run a small business for more than 10 years, a good understanding of the practical issues involved in owning and operating a business.
