OUR MISSION
Brinen & Associates specializes in serving the needs of public companies, entrepreneurs, private companies and individuals. For many of our small business clients, we serve as an outside general counsel: addressing the full spectrum of their legal issues, from corporate law, securities law and taxation to commercial litigation. We strive to provide the same high level of legal expertise you’d expect to find at a large multinational law firm but without all the layers of staffing and excessive cost. Our firm’s value proposition offers that of a big firm with a fraction of the cost and the accessibility you need. We are committed to providing professional service with a personal touch.
The firm’s attorneys we are called upon to help our clients in many different ways – whether in the courtroom or the boardroom – we face a wide variety of problems that need to be solved and deals that need to get done. These stories illustrate the way we approach these disparate client matters. Not every case or controversy ends in victory. These stories illustrate we are always looking for new ways to solve old or seemingly intractable problems.
