Firm Information

Most clients do not entrust their legal problems to a name, an office, or a logo. Most clients, instead, seek counsel from an individual. Someone they can trust to be responsive and to be creative and aggressive in solving their problems. Someone who will provide a practical assessment of a legal issue early in the engagement. Most clients do not hire firms; they hire lawyers.

Frantz Ward was founded in 2000 by thirteen attorneys who recognized just that. And our growth in eight short years to over 60 attorneys reflects that our commitment to building individual relationships with our clients is a recipe for success - not only our own but that of the clients who put their trust in us.
