We have also assisted attorneys in matters of law office management and advertising.

Our attorneys are known and respected in the Bay Area for providing informed opinions, especially in the area of legal ethics. Contact us at 415-241-7360 in San Francisco to receive a free initial phone consultation regarding our consulting and expert witness services.

Consulting With You and Strengthening Your Practice

As a lawyer, you will occasionally come across a law office practice or ethical situation with which you are unfamiliar. You cannot be expected to have keen insight and experience handling every type of legal ethics matter. We can provide the guidance you need in order to achieve your goals and best serve your client's or firm's interests.

Areas where we offer consulting services include:

  • Ethical issues involving conflicts-of-interest
  • Law office management
  • Web site advertising ethics
  • Investigations by the State Bar
  • Fee disputes and agreements

If an ethical violation has already occurred, we can provide State Bar defense services.

Validating Your Client's Case With Expert Testimony

We provide expert witness testimony in cases regarding legal malpractice, insufficient attorney-client communication and fee disputes. Whether the dispute is between an attorney and client or two attorneys, we will thoroughly examine the circumstances pertaining to the dispute and provide accurate testimony based upon our research and conclusions.

Don't you owe it to yourself and your client to utilize every meaningful resource available? Contact us online to receive a free initial consultation and discuss our consulting and expert witness services.
