Who Are We? 

The Valorem Team

The top ten list…

  1. We are all refugees of elite BigLaw firms;
  2. We are skilled courtroom lawyers, in practice and at heart;
  3. We are revolutionaries and risk-takers, entrepreneurs at heart;
  4. We bring a single-mindedness to the notion of client service;
  5. We believe you are entitled to budget certainty, to a real and realized commitment to help you deal with the cost pressures you face;
  6. We believe that the practice of law is an art, not a science;
  7. We believe in collaboration and hold the team rather than the individual sacrosanct;
  8. We love technology and efficiency -- the more red tape we hack through, the better;
  9. We take our work very seriously -- ourselves, not so much;
  10. We are real people, with supportive spouses and wonderful kids (who, at least today, appear to really like us).

Our individual bios tell our stories in our own words.  (Click on our bios to the right).

REQUISITES FOR the revolution ...

We are:

Entrepreneurs.  CollaborativeStrategists and Tacticians.  CreativePowerful courtroom advocates Business-savvy.  IrreverentPerceptive.  Disciplined.  The A-Team.  Results and Process.  Funny and Serious.  Fine Wine and Cold Beer (Miller only).  Work hard and work smartMovie-lovers and music makers (at least one of us).  Able to advocate and able to see through the .... er, "advocacy".  Polite (we used the word "advocacy," didn't we?).  Federal Court and State Court.  Appellate Court and Basketball Court.  Unified in rejecting the "billable hour" economic model.  Unafraid to say that "that's the way we've done it before" is the worst phrase ever created Five-tool players.
