OUR MISSION
We aim to service our clients with integrity, professionalism
and respect; to communicate what we are doing on their behalf
and to be versatile in responding to their needs. In so doing,
we provide our clients with a unique and exceptional value.
INTEGRITY
This is clearly the most important value on which we build our
relationships with our clients. It is the basis for mutual trust
between attorney and client.
PROFESSIONALISM
At Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara, professionalism means more than
the highest quality of work. It includes intelligent analysis,
creativity and innovation.
COMMUNICATION
We can do excellent work on your behalf, but if we do not
work with you and keep you informed, we have failed. At Ivey,
Barnum & O'Mara, we take that extra step to regularly
communicate what we are doing; we return your calls promptly;
and we make clear, in advance, our fee arrangement with you.
VALUE
Our philosophy is straightforward: provide the highest quality
legal work at a reasonable cost. We rely on the sound judgment
and seasoned experience of our attorneys, our practical approach
to the issues involved and sophisticated computer technology
to deliver our work product in the most efficient, cost-effective
manner.
VERSATILITY
In today's complex workplace there is an increasing need to
specialize. This is true at Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara. We
have attorneys who specialize in each of the major areas of
practice. We recognize, however, the need for each attorney
to have a working knowledge of all areas of our legal practice.
Only then can the attorneys deal effectively with the diverse
needs of each client.
RESPECT
Respect is not earned overnight. It comes gradually, a product
of all of the above qualities. We believe we have earned the
respect of our clients, our peers, even our competitors. When
we look at the source of our business, we see clear evidence
that this is true. First, we see long term clients who have
maintained their relationship with us over several decades.
Second, our largest source of new business comes from referrals
by clients who value Ivey, Barnum & O'Mara. Third, we
regularly receive referrals from other professionals and law
firms who are in a position to judge the service we provide. |
