These Fortune 500 clients turn to Simmons Jannace, LLP for our expertise and experience. All too often, lawyers are slaves to convention, to the status quo. We are not.
We are equally adept at representing small companies, municipalities and individuals, many of whom turn to us for quality representation at a reasonable cost. By truly listening to the needs of our clients and looking for ways to resolve conflicts in nontraditional ways, we have established long-standing relationships with our clients, many of whom we have represented for decades. We are proud of the trust and loyalty that all of our clients, both large and small, have placed in Simmons Jannace, LLP.
Our attorneys are encouraged to approach each case with a fresh perspective and to look for opportunities to resolve conflicts in a cost-efficient and effective way. We have successfully tried many cases for our clients, yet have also been successful employing alternative dispute resolution techniques and negotiations. Clients turn to us because we listen to their needs and always put their interests first.
In addition to litigation, the firm acts as counsel to business clients and real estate developers in matters involving financing transactions, real estate and general commercial matters. Our firm provides guidance in choosing a business form and has organized corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, and other legal entities, as well as negotiated and prepared joint venture agreements and buy/sell agreements.
