A Different Approach
Slow down.
Important legal decisions are rarely just legal in nature. We create space to see the forest for the trees to get clarity on what matters most to you before making decisions.
Look at the whole picture.
We believe that your relationships, values, family, work, goals, and overall well-being matter as much, if not more than, the legal issues and analysis.
Move forward intentionally.
Whether navigating conflict or planning for the future, the goal is not simply to produce a legal result or boiler plate documents. It is to help you make thoughtful decisions that reflect who you are as a human being.

Kind words from former clients
“I wish to share that I love Dave and Eleni’s “wayness” of being attorneys. They both expressed genuine kindness and thoughtfulness as human beings in the process. More than I can express here, I appreciate both of them greatly, and I am blessed to have experienced this exercise in the human condition being represented by the two of them. It gives me hope for mankind that even those in powerful positions on this earth can be compassionate and caring for those who are in need of assistance and guidance as I was.”

“Lawyers with a heart!! My experience working with the Albrechta’s was fantastic! They are prompt, knowledgable, and they could easily explain things to me in away I understood. I felt like they had my best interests at heart! Overall, I would recommend them to any of my friends and family!”

“David was exceptionally helpful and professional during all our interactions. He was able to clearly explain legal concepts related to my case, and help me to navigate the decisions related to my case and the legal process in general. Beyond his professionalism and knowledge, David was compassionate and understanding - qualities that I did not expect to find when engaging with an attorney. Should I ever require legal services in the future, I will absolutely work with David and his team again.”
