Freedman, Boyd, Hollander, Goldberg, Ives & Duncan, P.A.
The firm, founded in 1974, is a litigation firm with practice areas as varied as the interests of its members. Its lawyers practice in both federal and state trial and appellate courts, from the municipal courts to the Supreme Court of the United States, and handle a broad spectrum of civil and criminal cases. It was founded by lawyers who were and still are good friends and professional colleagues with a shared commitment to the use of the judicial system for its intended purpose of rendering true justice. Five of the firm’s six partners have been selected by their professional peers to be included in the respected publication, Best Lawyers in America. In the years since its founding, the firm has grown slowly by the addition of exceptional lawyers who share the same vision and commitment.
Rodey Law Firm
49th Annual Bill of Rights Celebration Sponsor
Being a good lawyer means different things to different people. Some would say it is being well educated, experienced, and tough in the courtroom. Others would describe a creative, client-oriented problem solver. At the Rodey Law Firm, we believe a good lawyer is all these things and more.
Good lawyers help their clients make wise choices. They cut through the complexities of a problem to find its core. They study that problem from different angles, turn it on its head, and ask “what if?” Then they focus their intellectual, legal and strategic skills on finding a solution efficiently and economically. Ultimately, good lawyers make a difference in the lives of their clients.
This approach is a long-established practice at the Rodey Law Firm. We think it is the essence of what makes us good at what we do.
