“Boutique” noun \bü-ˈtēk\– A smaller law firm made up of highly-qualified attorneys with unique qualifications and experience who, because of their lower overhead, can afford to charge less for the same or better quality of work.
Why Choose Okun Loritz, LLP?
Bigger credit union law firms are pricing themselves out of the market with bloated overhead that results in excessive billing practices. On the other hand, credit unions that work with a boutique law firm, like Okun Loritz, LLP, can reduce their legal costs while obtaining the services of seasoned attorneys with specialized experience who know the industry, and who know how to solve and prevent the problems that credit unions face because they have years of experience doing it.
Mission Statement
When the firm was formed in 2008, each partner had been with a big law firm. The idea was to form a boutique law firm that would do the same kind of work – the same quality of work that had been done at the big firm – but to offer the firm’s clients much lower billing rates; a better, more client-focused billing philosophy; and more responsiveness with an emphasis on problem solving.
