We appreciate the diversity and uniqueness of our attorneys and staff – people whose backgrounds and life experiences are unique in every sense of the word – which diversity we consider to be so engrained in our firm culture as to allow us to naturally bring broad-based, practical and unique perspectives to the legal issues and client service demanded by today's global marketplace.

Several of our attorneys and staff immigrated to the United States – coming from countries on at least four continents – learning not only English in the process but also an appreciation for the American legal system. We grew up and went to school in small towns and big cities; we came to the west from all parts of the United States and many other countries; our backgrounds are from every economic level; we speak many languages and hold a variety of educational degrees and honors; we are single and married; many of us are parents; we range in age from our 20s to our 70s and for some, law is a second career; we have many interests and talents and are accomplished in many ways unrelated to the law. We are women and men, without limitation of opportunity because of gender, race, creed, sexual orientation, disability, heritage or any other thing. Simply stated, individually and collectively, we are unique.
