Core Values

Jeff Galvan and Walter Messick founded the firm in 2010 on certain core principles:

Excellent Client Service:

Our primary goal is to meet the needs of our clients, and in doing so earn their loyalty and trust. Excellent client services is the foundation to this goal. We strive to be the best we can be, to be available and responsive, and to be hands on in our client’s legal needs. In our role as counselor, we go beyond delivery of just legal services.

Unwavering Work Ethic:

Talent, connections and luck all may help you succeed in life, but meeting the needs of our clients also requires an unwavering work ethic. This doesn’t mean just working long hours, it is doing whatever it takes to understand our clients’ objectives, meeting critical client deadlines, and producing high quality transaction documents.

Love The Work You Do:

Our work is challenging. Fortunately, we love the work we do. The satisfaction we get from doing a good job for our clients keeps us going.

Innovation/Collaboration:

Innovation is one of the most critical skills needed in order to successfully close business and real estate transactions. Every transaction presents new problems, requiring our lawyers to work together and apply our firm’s collective experience/knowledge to arrive at new solutions.
