Firm Profile

Welcome to our website, we would like to introduce you to a very different kind of law firm.

Brief History

Shortly after completing three terms as Dane County’s elected District Attorney, Hal Harlowe opened a Madison based private practice in 1989. The firm was formally incorporated and moved to its present location in 1996, and its success can be attributed to the firm’s legal expertise and an uncompromising commitment to serving the interests and needs of its clients. Regardless of whether the issue is a simple business matter or a life altering legal crisis, each of our clients is provided with personal attention which reflects the values of the firm.

Values

From the outset, Hal envisioned a “boutique” law firm that concentrated on providing legal services of the highest quality in targeted areas. He did not choose to measure success by how large the firm grew, but rather by the level of satisfaction that is achieved through meeting professional objectives in a compassionate and personal way that reflects the core values of the firm. Protecting the confidentiality of our clients’ legal issues is a basic concern, and this is facilitated by the firm’s small size and location.

Setting

An important part of the firm’s culture is the homelike setting of its law offices which are housed in an historic mansion by Lake Mendota. The warm environment helps create a sense of family, a place where clients bring their very personal problems without concerns about running into people they know. The office is a reflection of our uniqueness, and is intended to contribute to an experience of well being for staff and clients as well.
