Question 1

(From About): What do you do?

Accepted Answer

We write final drafts, subject to client input, for prominent plaintiff litigators, GC's, senior management of Fortune 1000 and disruptive high-growth firms.
From your last drafts, we write final drafts of pleadings. We also write any stage of demand letter or critical correspondence – initial draft through final.
The hallmark of our work is discretion, clarity, brevity, and above all, impact, and results.

Question 2

(From About): Who are you?

Accepted Answer

We are discretion. Invisible. No one will know about our contribution to your work but the people you want to know. Your NDA or ours.
We are experience. SCOTUS. Circuit Courts. Countless demand letters, political speeches, social events, press copy, and critical legal and business correspondence.
We are cost-effective. A proverb comes to mind: “The least expensive professional is often the one who charges the most.” For initial engagements, there is no fee if you don’t use the work.

Question 3

(From About): How do you do it?

Accepted Answer

Passion. For your work. Its importance. And to get results for you and your clients.
Focus. It gives you the edge. An unfair advantage. We work on a maximum of three cases at a time.
