Practice/Organization Description
Our goal has always been - and continues to be - to exceed client expectations.
As DRM has grown from a small-town firm in St. Johnsbury, Vermont, to a six-office firm with international clients, our values remain rooted in providing personal attention and responsiveness. Our expansion into a full-service firm enables us to offer interdisciplinary collaboration typically found only in larger firms.
Our experienced, creative attorneys enjoy the challenge of solving complex problems, often identifying uncommon approaches to achieve favorable results for clients.
Our business clients include entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, Fortune 100 companies and leading technology businesses. We serve financial institutions, public utilities, construction companies, grocery stores and healthcare institutions. We represent individuals in all facets of family law and estate planning matters, as well as those who experience life-altering consequences resulting from brain and spinal cord injuries.
