Why clients choose us
A firm small enough to know you, seasoned enough to win.
Founding partners Eleanor Hartwell and Marco Reyes built this practice on a simple promise: every client speaks directly with an experienced attorney, not a rotating cast of associates. We answer the phone, we explain the law in plain language, and we prepare every matter as if it will go to trial.
That preparation is why the majority of our clients arrive through referrals from people we have already served.
