Overview

Since 1970, TroyGould has been a nationally and internationally recognized law firm for business. We’ve built an innovative mid-size firm that understands what is important to business leaders and how to deliver it. We represent many public as well as privately held companies that range from start-ups to middle-market and “Fortune 500” companies. Our clients also include lenders, investors and senior corporate executives.

We meet our clients’ day-to-day general business and litigation needs, while also handling specialized matters involving securities, intellectual property, financial services, tax and real estate law. We have a substantial life sciences practice representing an array of emerging and established pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies. Our firm also represents some of the largest financial institutions in the country in connection with their equipment leasing activities and loan workouts, and companies that are combining entertainment or multimedia applications with high technology frequently seek our counsel.

Clients rely on our help anywhere they do business around the world, with our global reach enabled by our affiliation with two outstanding major international law firm networks. Our international practice includes many in-bound and outbound transactions, including raising capital for Chinese companies.

We give you the realistic, objective advice and counsel you need, not what you would like to hear. Pick up the phone and call us any time, whether you need a quick answer to an everyday problem or a comprehensive strategy to resolve a major transaction or dispute. Either way you get tenacious dedication, an urgency that matches your own, and a real understanding of what you need and how to achieve it.

In a phrase that’s out of fashion at many other law firms, we serve our clients as business counselors. Our lawyers are committed to the excellence that comes from wisdom, and we believe that wisdom is the product of experience and training, not the result of grinding out hours.

We treat each other, and our clients, with respect. We work as a team, and our clients are a part of that team. Working in teamwork together, we believe in camaraderie and open communication, in total quality and absolute integrity, in trust and loyalty. The result is that TroyGould clients, attorneys and staff build long-lasting relationships with each other. That means we can take a long-term view toward success and opportunity, and build together with our clients in ways that make both of them last.
