You’ve worked hard to build what you have – your family, your business, your reputation.
The attorneys and staff of Rendigs are creating our own legacy by helping our clients protect what they value most.
We’re here to guide you through your day-to-day legal needs as well as high stakes litigation and transactions.
How can we help you?
We have used your legal services for a number of situations over the past few years. They include forming a family trust, negotiating a contract for our CEO, and attempting to partially partner with another business. We have always found your approach to be friendly, thorough and intelligent. We have found Rendigs to be much easier to work with than other attorneys from our past. Feel free to have anyone contact me for a recommendation.
Rendigs’ communications with me have always been outstanding. In a world where automated answering machines are the norm, Rendigs is a helpful voice answering the phone or a same-day reply by email.
I have been working with Rendigs, Fry, Kiely & Dennis, LLP for ten years and they have consistently provided our company with exceptional legal work. Their attention to detail and professional and easy manner make them a pleasure to work with. Not only would I recommend this firm to my colleagues but I have, on more than one occasion.
Sometimes people call us for exciting things – they need help setting up a business or they want to add a new baby to their estate plan. We love these kinds of calls. It’s fun to be a part of good news.
Sometimes though, people call us because the situation is not as pleasant. A harassment claim has been made against your company. A product didn’t work like it should. A doctor is being sued.
Regardless of the situation, Rendigs helps our clients navigate legal challenges safely and quickly. A simple phone call might answer your question; initial consultations are always free. Other times, depending on the complexity, we might work together on a single case for years – through discovery, mediations and potentially even trial. Don’t worry, in either situation, we’ll guide you every step of the way.
Rendigs has over seven decades of experience, nationally recognized attorneys, and, most importantly, a strong commitment to help our clients achieve success.
