Our Practice Areas
We provide sound legal advice, representation, and results to clients in the following areas:
Commitment
Business law and litigation require a real appreciation of business and commitment to changes and trends. In years past, businesses, corporations, and insurance companies looked exclusively to large law firms to handle their legal affairs. Today, business executives, corporate counsel, and risk managers are much more sophisticated: their selection of counsel is based more on the real needs of the situation at hand and a bottom-line orientation. That change has served us well, for we have had tremendous success forging relationships with businesses, other attorneys, in-house counsel, and litigation managers of major corporations and insurance companies throughout the country. Many clients migrated to us because they got tired of being lost in the shuffle, tired of dealing only with voicemail and email, and tired of confronting business uncertainties and opportunities without timely legal advice. Behind the pomp and circumstance at other law firms you find real business backgrounds, knowledge, and common sense lacking. That is certainly not the case with us, as our attorneys are graduates of distinguished law schools and have diverse backgrounds in industry, financial services, accounting, government, and education.
At Day, Edwards, Propester, & Christensen, P.C., we are dedicated to providing quality legal service in a friendly yet professional atmosphere. We apply the right combination of innovation, creativity, and commitment to each case that we handle. We strive to resolve disputes fairly, efficiently, and economically. We keep clients involved in their cases, respond promptly to inquiries, and stay on top of changes in the law. Our innovative approach to client service blends the best of expertise, teamwork, and service. At our firm you will not find any cliques, gimmicks, or unpleasant surprises just good attorneys with impeccable legal credentials, ability, and a knack for delivering results.
