Connecting with Clients

After 20+ years with a larger firm, we made the decision to establish a small boutique firm of our own, focusing on our collective expertise in tax, estate and bankruptcy matters. With a broad set of in-house skills, client-focused experience and advanced technology, we have the flexibility to work closely with a multitude of clients in person or virtually, saving our clients time and money.

Collaboration and Partnerships

Having practiced law in this area for so many years, we both are fortunate to have made connections and collaborative working relationships with some of our favorite attorneys. The strength of these partnerships overflows to our clients and we are able to facilitate arrangements that are friendly, seamless, and cost-saving — which we think is a great thing for our clients. We consider ourselves knowledgeable about the latest collaborative technology and educate other attorneys on the topic, including at the North Carolina/South Carolina Bar Association Tax Section annual meeting.

Our goal is to listen carefully and thoughtfully to our clients and advise them strategically for both the short and the long term. Let us know how we can help you and your business succeed: contact Griffing Leazer.
