We are not a bank, trust company, or depository institution, and we do not accept deposits or hold client funds. The name speaks to discipline and discretion, not a banking charter.
Neither. We hold no inventory, place no proprietary products, and earn nothing from steering you toward a particular transaction. Our only role is counsel aligned with your objectives.
We reply, typically within two business days, to arrange a confidential conversation. There is no obligation, and no engagement exists until a written agreement defines one.
