Our Vision

We started Phronesis to fulfill our vision of practicing tax law in an authentic, compassionate, and collaborative fashion.  Our lawyers are proud to practice law in a manner that aligns with these core values. 

We are humbly confident and hold personal integrity and reputation in the highest regard.  At Phronesis, we understand that we must provide our clients with superior value before receiving anything in return. We are selective in the files we take on, with every client receiving our focused attention. 

It is essential that clients do not view us as "temporary visitors" in their lives but rather as trusted advisors who participate in the journey with them. At Phronesis, we focus on developing long-term relationships with our clients that extend well beyond our initial engagement.
