Counsel for the Decisions
That Matter Most
A boutique firm of six attorneys handling estates, businesses, and disputes with the care of a small practice and the rigor of a large one.
Three Doors Into the Firm
Most clients arrive with one of three problems. All three get the same treatment: a partner’s full attention and a plan in writing.
Estates & Probate
Wills, trusts, and successions that keep families out of court and out of each other’s hair. Plans reviewed every three years, on us.

Formation to exit: contracts, partnerships, acquisitions, and the disagreements in between —
for owners who want counsel, not billable noise.
Civil Litigation
When a dispute can’t be settled across a table, we try cases — prepared as if trial is certain, which is usually why it isn’t.

We cap our caseload so a partner — not a rotating associate — knows your file cold. Calls returned inside one business day is a written policy, not a slogan.
Flat fees where the work is predictable, plain-English memos where it isn’t, and an honest early answer when the wisest move is not to litigate.
Quietly Recommended
“They settled in four months what another firm had stretched across two years. The first meeting ended with a plan and a fixed fee. I nearly asked them to repeat it.”
R. Whitfield, Business Owner“Ms. Hartwell rewrote our family trust after our daughter’s diagnosis. She thought of questions we didn’t know existed —
then answered them in one page.”
“Opposing counsel called them ‘thorough’ the way sailors describe a storm. We were glad to be standing on their side of it.”
M. Castellanos, Property Developer
