it’s changing quickly and changing
00:08
dramatically technology and efficiency
00:10
is the name of the new game
00:12
the key is to master the technology and
00:15
to maximize the efficiency
00:17
without sacrificing the personal care
00:19
the personal attention
00:21
and the personal relationships that are
00:23
at the core of what we do
00:25
at ferguson shetland blue we invest
00:27
heavily to stay ahead of the technology
00:29
curve but we know that people come to us
00:32
not just for the proficiency of our
00:34
services and the extent of our knowledge
00:36
they come to us for the care and the
00:38
attention that we give to
00:39
all of our matters that we sweat the

details and that we
00:43
care we really care about the services
00:46
that we provide
00:48
and the results that we achieve
00:55
one of the things that i noticed even
00:56
before i joined the firm
00:58
were was the fact that the people who
01:00
are involved are
01:01
dedicated to the work they’re doing i
01:03
actually had a little bit of an
01:04
opportunity to interact with bob
01:06
ferguson about 10 years
01:08
before i joined the firm and that sort
01:10
of informed my understanding
01:12
of the people that i was joining in the
01:13
type of work they did
01:15
and the approach they took it is a
01:18
serious
01:19
profession it is a profession that
01:22
you can approach from many different
01:25
perspectives
01:26
i like to think of it as an approach we
01:29
take towards
01:30
excellence excellence in terms of
01:32
competence
01:34
in advising clients in getting the work
01:36
done
01:37
doing the job properly being sure that
01:40
the client is kept fully informed
01:43
and frankly being passionate about the
01:45
work you’re doing for the clients
01:47
it’s been something i’ve enjoyed since i
01:50
joined
01:50
over 20 years ago
01:57
our firm is dedicated to professional
01:59
excellence
02:01
and that means not only competence in
02:04
what we do
02:05
but a professional attitude in what we
02:07
do
02:08
it’s very important to work hard and
02:10
treat others fairly
02:12
and with respect act honestly and do the
02:14
right thing
02:15
and that means that when a client hires
02:18
us we get into some pretty heated cases
02:20
we have to treat other lawyers fairly
02:22
and with respect
02:23
and remember that unless it affects the
02:26
merits of the case
02:28
then we as the lawyer not the client
02:31
have the discretion to determine
02:33
the customary accommodations to be given
02:35
to opposing counsel
02:36
and whether or not they should be
02:38
allowed an extension in the appropriate
02:40
circumstances
02:41
i am very proud of our firm and my
02:43
colleagues
02:45
that our firm has earned such a good
02:46
reputation in the legal community
02:49
not only for our competence but also for
02:52
our professionalism and the treatment of
02:54
our colleagues
