Du Val Business Law was founded in 2001 by Bill Du Val. After years of experience as in-house counsel and a substantial amount of interaction with large law firms, his goal was to create a unique law firm that was tailored to business people's needs. He created a firm that was as enjoyable to work for as it is to work with, and that prides itself on relationships and results. Attorneys at Du Val Business Law:

  • Have worked inside of businesses as either owners or counsel
  • Have experience running business organizations
  • Will not be subject to aggressive billable-hour requirements
  • Will return calls promptly, communicating regularly with our clients, and will be accessible for brief calls without charge.

In short, all of us here are highly-experienced individuals who represent our clients as we would want to be represented ourselves.
