•  Integrity and honesty are always paramount – we will always stand proudly behind what we are
    saying and the programs we are forging.

•  When an organization looks for outside counsel, they expect creativity -- and we are committed
    to providing it.

•  Our style is straightforward and pragmatic. We will only advocate initiatives that have clear
    upside and will look as good in practice as they do on paper.

•  We believe in the highest standard of quality. If our work product does not meet your
    expectations, we will stop the clock and continue to work until you are satisfied.

•  We believe in forward motion, and favor voicing ideas and putting content on the table for our
    client's reaction versus prolonged debate that leads to inaction.

•  Each quarter we donate a minimum of 3% of our pre-tax profit to non-profit organizations. Our
    charitable priorities are at-risk youth and interracial/interethnic understanding, but we are also
    pleased to support the giving priorities of our clients.
