Client Service & Education
From the inception of our law practice, the attorneys of Gibbs Giden have shared the philosophy that the client’s interests must be kept paramount in every matter we handle. At each juncture, we strive to define the goals of our representation and develop a realistic budget for the performance of our work. We communicate regularly with our clients to develop and implement the most effective and economical strategies for achieving those goals.
