What Is a Lawyer?

Our Credo:

A former President of the American Association for Justice, our founder, Theodore I. Koskoff, was widely known for the passion he brought to the practice of law. His inspiring personal view about the lawyer’s contributions to society has become the credo of our law firm.

If you are a lawyer, what are you?
If you are a lawyer, you stand between the abuse of governmental power and the individual.
If you are a lawyer, you stand between the abuse of corporate power and the individual.
If you are a lawyer, you stand between the abuse of judicial power and the individual.
If you are a lawyer, you are the hair shirt to the smugness and complacency of society, and
If you are a lawyer, you are helping to mold the rights of individuals for generations to come.”

— THEODORE I. Koskoff (1913-1987)
