Rick, and I have practiced together for 25 years. A fun story about it is, I hired him when I was the managing partner at our previous firm and then I quit for four years. And then he came – then he asked me to come back, and I was ready to come back and he was my boss.

Well, that didn’t really work for us, him being my boss and I being his boss so we decided to launch our own firm because as much as we really appreciated the firm that we were at, and they were great mentors and taught us so much they were winding down, and we were winding up. So we had the opportunity to do things in different, and we spent six months planning and discussing what Right Fitch Law Group was going to look like given that the legal landscape had dramatically changed, but the law had not.

And so we really needed to find – bridge that gap. There was a gap, and how can we do that? Well, one of the things that we needed to do, as a law firm, we needed to be agile and nimble because everything is changing quickly. And the firm needs to be able to do that as well. So that was one of the things that we looked at, and we really have four foundational principles that we thought long and hard about and put into place, and have lived by for the last 10 years.

And those are, one, that we are trial lawyers and because of that we understand at the end of the case what a jury is looking for. So we are able to streamline litigation so that we are only doing what needs to be done in order to convince a jury. That’s a very different than a litigator who is just sending out discovery. So we can evaluate cases within 60 days, typically based on our experience and then we are able to streamline the litigation by choosing the discovery that needs to be done and picking the battles.

We are innovative. We come up with creative solutions all the time to bridge that gap between the law, as it is and businesses as they are moving forward. And then thirdly, we have proven our results, every day in every way we are getting good results for our clients, and we tracked those metrics and we’ve been very successful in meeting our clients goals.
