A small firm, deliberately

We have chosen to stay small so that every client works directly with a partner — from the first call to the last signature.

A quiet law library with walnut shelves, brass reading lamps and a tall arched window.

Founded on a simple idea

Lexford was founded on the belief that good legal advice should be understandable, affordable in advance, and given by the person who will actually do the work. We started with two attorneys and a borrowed conference room.

Today we are three attorneys and a small, long-serving staff — still in one office, still returning every call ourselves. We have deliberately stayed small. It is the only way we know to give each client the attention their matter deserves.

In practice since 2009

What you can expect from us

Clarity
Plain answers, in writing, before any work begins. You will always know where your matter stands and what it will cost.
Discretion
Your affairs are handled by the few people who need to know them — and never discussed anywhere else.
Resolve
We prepare every matter as if it will go to court. That is usually why it doesn’t have to.
