We are, by definition, a small law firm. We are not the type of law firm that expects you to spend nights and weekends and holidays committed to reaching some billable hour goal.

If you meet those standards, and you help clients achieve their goals, then you will be rewarded both financially and professionally. And guess what? You’ll still have time on the weekends to hang out with your family and kids. Even if you don’t have kids, that’s cool too. Perhaps you’ll want that time to spend with your friends or having some fun, because we understand that everyone needs time for that as well.
