Business attorneys. Wise counselors. Trusted guides.
consilium is Latin for the word advice. Within the heart of every good attorney is the willingness to be rigorously honest; do hard and oftentimes uncomfortable things; and trust that serving others in this way - for their benefit, and without regard to gain or loss - will yield the best outcomes, always. Some say this makes us unique, but we say this is who we are. At our core, we are counselors. We help our clients discover what’s most important, and we assist them with developing a strategy, charting a path, and walking through a process that’s designed to deliver the best possible outcomes. Most lawyers can provide you a document, give you advice and charge you a fee. But few can help you craft solutions that reflect your true character, advance your most important interests, and help you live in peace with the result. Above all else, these are the things that mean the most to our clients. Our role is to meet you where you are and to help you arrive at where you want to be.
In addition to being counselors, we are craftsman, artisans and technicians. We are thoughtful, curious, and growth oriented, and we’re oftentimes accused of thinking outside the box. We think critically about what we do, and marry that with the practical reality of your circumstances. We lack the luxury of making small problems into bigger ones. Where conflict exists, we either leverage its usefulness or vacuum it out. Where chaos prevails, we offer structure and order. And where emotion and confusion overwhelm, we bring a measured approach that’s rooted in temperance and wisdom. We are purveyors of the written and spoken word, and we use multiple modicums of communication to effectively advocate for our client’s interests and advance the broader initiative. We tend to give a lot of weight to discretion and quality, and where details are important, we seek to master them. Our work is our signature and our calling card, and we stand behind it. We’ve been trained by great firms, under considerable pressure, where certainty in outcomes is paramount. It’s our hope that you’ll benefit from our learning. With that in mind, we are committed to adding value to all that’s entrusted to our care, and if we can’t leave you better than you came to us, then we probably don’t deserve to serve you. We hope that you’ll find this approach to problem-solving compelling, but even more, effective and efficient.
