Equally important, in today's world of rising "big firm" rates which seem to know no bounds, TJ attorneys have all the "big firm" experience a client could want, yet by practicing in a smaller, more responsive environment, they (and their clients) are not burdened by the costly and inflexible structure of the old-style, traditional legal institutions.TJ is committed to the highest integrity in the practice of law. TJ is also committed to meaningful participation in the needs of the community and to that end, the firm and its members regularly devote time and resources to charitable and other non-profit organizations. TJ is A-V rated by Martindale-Hubbell, signifying the highest rating of skill and ethics in the practice of law. TJ is certified by the Women's Business Enterprise National Council (and other, similar certifying organizations) as a woman and minority owned business enterprise.
