. . . - Adapted & Inspired by Excerpt from William Lashner's Past Due (2005).*
* In an excerpt from William Lashner's Past Due, the fictitious character Victor Carl made it clear that "It means something to be a client. It means he gets my loyalty, whether he deserves it or not. It means he gets my absolute best for the price of an hourly fee. It means in a world where every person has turned against him there is one person who will fight by his side for as long as there is a battle to be fought." Today, these powerful words ring true for our team and our service, albeit with some real-word adaptation, of course.

“…on your team and looking out for your best interest.”

“I’ve worked with [Adkins Lawyers] for . . . months, and I’m very happy with the working relationship. Alia [Adkins-]Derrick is really in tune with the needs of her clients… particularly the stress and constant change of being a start-up. She’s very responsive to emails and turns things around quickly when you need it. I also very much appreciate that she’s really on your team and looking out for your best interest. I’ve talked to too many lawyers where it’s apparent they just want me on their roster to sell me everything and anything. [Attorney Derrick] actually is the opposite- she actually takes the time to figure out where we’re exposed and explains the risks without being pushy or a “Debbie downer.” She’s also looking out for ways to help us minimize our costs and even introduced us to potential new partners . . . . I love working with Attorney Derrick – bottom line, she’s a great partner for the long-term: trustworthy, knowledgeable, and caring.”

When I started my business I hired Adkins Lawyers to help set me up. I didn’t have a big budget, however, they didn’t make me feel like a small client and gave me excellent service and advice. As my business has grown, I’ve continued to work with them and have not been disappointed. I’ve referred Alia and her team to multiple business owners and she’s made me look by providing excellent service and advice every time.
