“With extensive experience in operating a small business, I am familiar with, and appreciate, the challenges business owners face when confronted with litigation-related issues. I explain the litigation process and am upfront about cost and possible outcomes. My clients are encouraged to take an active role in planning and strategizing throughout the course of the lawyer-client relationship. Technology plays an important role in this because I am vigilant about using new tools and resources to deliver legal services in an efficient and cost-effective manner.”
“Details are important to me but so too is an overall strategy that fulfills my clients’ needs and expectations. I collaborate with other lawyers within and outside of the firm to maximize the likelihood of achieving my clients’ intended outcome.
“On bankruptcy and insolvency matters, I am a trusted legal resource to other lawyers and other lawyers routinely refer their own clients to me for advice and representation.”
Bart dedicates his time to speaking and presenting on bankruptcy, insolvency and commercial litigation topics at law association events, continuing legal education seminars and writing for local newspapers. He also regularly participates in community and charitable events within and outside of the legal profession.
