About Company:
We're a family-owned boutique criminal, DUI, and traffic defense
firm based in Shaker Heights, practicing in Federal and State
courts throughout Northeast Ohio. But more than that, we're
counselors, problem solvers, protectors, and fierce advocates who
stand between clients and a system that is geared toward achieving
convictions rather than justice. We work together seamlessly,
communicate clearly, and share success. We anticipate each other's
needs and foster a positive, inclusive culture.
We're committed to treating clients with dignity and providing
unparalleled customer service - we see people, not their alleged
crimes. We treat our role with reverence - shepherding clients
through what may be their lowest point and helping them through to
the other side is an honor and privilege that takes not only legal
skills but empathy. We accomplish this with a brand of
compassionate straight talk - providing clients stellar legal work
while also recognizing the humanity in all of us.
