Co-Counsel
The Blatteis Law Firm tailors its legal representation to fit your specific needs. No one lawyer can do every single legal task well. Accordingly, the Blatteis Law Firm establishes co-counseling relationships with other attorneys whose experience and legal knowledge may be more appropriate for the legal matters at hand so as to be able to provide clients with a truly effective team to address your legal needs.
The following are examples of highly qualified lawyers with whom the Blatteis Law Firm has had successful co-counseling relationships in the past so as to better serve its clients. Please note that, unlike in some firms in which attorneys are directed to only use attorneys who work for their own firm even if they may not be the most appropriate for the legal issue, these lawyers are not partners of the Blatteis Law Firm, nor are they employed by or associated with the Blatteis Law Firm. In point of fact, they operate independently of the Blatteis Law Firm. They serve as excellent potential co-counseling resources with whom the Blatteis Law Firm has worked successfully in the past and may call upon in the future when putting together a comprehensive legal team for client matters. Please keep in mind that an engagement for representation of the Blatteis Law Firm does not signify the engagement of any of the following attorneys until and unless the client and the attorneys mutually agree to the terms of such legal representation and confirm and/or waive any potential conflicts of interest.
