In some respects, of course, our firms are like any others. We’re husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers and sons and daughters and friends doing a job and making a living.

That’s about where the similarity ends.

Talk to a bunch of lawyers long enough and you’ll start to hear most of them complain about some aspect of being lawyers. Not here. You will never hear one of our lawyers complain about being a lawyer. That’s because we love what we do. Being a lawyer is an honor. A privilege. A trust. A gift. It’s a means of helping others. Of solving problems. Of doing the right thing. Of seeking and—more often than not—getting justice. We are hopelessly, passionately, euphorically committed to serving our clients and solving their problems.

But when our work is done, we go back to being husbands and wives, and being mothers and fathers to little guys like this. Because as important as our work is, our families are even more important.
