Our Firm Philosophy

Curtis, Goodwin, Sullivan, Udall & Schwab, PLC realizes it cannot be all things to all people.

We are committed to value disciplines. First, we are committed to the value of operational excellence. We deliver legal services to our clients efficiently, effectively and competitively. And when we can't, we know who can, and we secure and manage those resources for you.

Our lawyers pride themselves on their public service. We choose clients and clients choose us because we have a strong commitment to government service and to doing the right thing for the common good. We give back to the community by volunteering our time to make our profession and the places we live in across the Valley better.

We are also committed to the values of leadership and imagination. Because we have a history of adapting esoteric or novel legal theories to practical use on behalf of our clients, we bring to your organization the ability to discard outdated practices and concepts of law and instead employ innovative legal theories, interpretations and tools to win cases.

We have a collective 100 years of experience in a number of legal and business disciplines. Our understanding of the practicalities of running a business was gained during the hands-on ownership and operation of businesses in such diverse industries as agriculture, real estate and commerce. Coupled with our attorneys' mastery of the intricacies of the practice of a few, focused areas of law, Curtis, Goodwin, Sullivan, Udall & Schwab, PLC offers our clients a unique opportunity to integrate our attorneys' real world experience and legal expertise as a valuable asset and instrument to be employed in the conduct of their own enterprises and endeavors.

Our most highly prized value is client involvement. The primary focus of the Firm is responding to what clients want to achieve and helping them make it happen. We focus on developing a close relationship with our clients to learn each client's needs and goals. We find such an understanding enables us to identify and recommend the best choices and solutions for our clients, even if the outcome is not the easiest or most expedient course of action. Together, we can achieve optimum results.

We believe you will recognize our value - not just because our fees are competitive and our attorneys highly skilled - but because we listen to your concerns and work hard to accomplish your goals together.
