About Us

A whip-smart team of legal professionals, thriving under pressure, and bringing it every day for our clients.

Our Team

Each team member at LLG personifies the qualities that define our firm’s mission. Our attorneys never rest in their pursuit of big results for our clients. Each one of us loves coming to work in an atmosphere that fosters creativity, values individuality, and functions in every way like a true team.

This is who we are.

RELENTLESS

We want the hardest problems you can throw at us. There is nothing we love more than diving deep into complex litigation and disputes. We will solve your problems, no matter how large or how small.

This team thrives under pressure, so pile it on.

INSPIRED

Our team of battle-tested attorneys brings an unmatched drive and determination to every client. We don’t rest on our laurels. We innovate and create new solutions to produce winning results. We bring order and symmetry to chaos and complexity.

We love what we do.

COMMITTED

Lots of firms talk about being responsive; we live it. Our commitment to serving our clients fundamentally shapes how we view and practice law. We aren’t just there for you, we are there with you . . . at 2AM on Thanksgiving morning with serious solutions to serious problems.

“Responsive” just doesn’t cut it.

AUTHENTIC

We are human beings. While we thrive under incredible challenges and difficult circumstances, we also care deeply about the people we work with and represent. We have dogs and cats, favorite teams and favorite bands, we even have hobbies and interests outside of taking depositions and writing briefs.

Our clients are human beings too, and we can tell you all about them.
