Best Law Firms in Hawaii for Commercial Litigation

Deep Island Roots, World View

Over Sixty Years of Service to our Community. Our firm traces its roots back to 1963 when Frank Damon and Henry Shigekane founded a unique law firm. The ethnic and cultural mix inherent in our firm’s origin has continued as we have grown and is reflected by our ability to offer clients services in such languages as Japanese, Mandarin, Vietnamese, and French, in addition to English.

Throughout our history, a diverse array of our attorneys have faithfully and steadfastly served our clients with a wide range of legal services. As Hawaii changed from the 1960’s until now, Damon Key adapted to meet the ever-evolving marketplace for legal services and now stands as one of Hawaii’s top law firms. Today, our attorneys provide civil legal services to local, national, and international clients, in both transactional and litigation practice areas. Damon Key attorneys take on pro bono cases and support Hawaii’s non-profit companies as members of their Boards of Directors. Through our membership with the international law firm affiliation, Meritas, and our deep involvement with the American Bar Association and Hawaii Bar Association, Damon Key is also ready to help our clients expand their reach beyond Hawaii’s shores into new markets on the continent and beyond.

At Damon Key, we think that firms are best judged by their people. Ours are committed, energetic and enthusiastic. We relish challenges. We temper intelligence and determination with wisdom conferred by a healthy sense of humor, a variety of experiences and a worldview that includes devotion to community and friends. Our firm attracts some of the freshest, brightest talents in law.

Clients benefit from the depth of expertise and diverse backgrounds of our attorneys, the synergy of working relationships within the firm, our multi-language capabilities, and our experience in business management, construction, teaching, science and engineering. We have earned a reputation for preventing and resolving client problems. We consistently strive to achieve cost-effective results, while keeping each client informed throughout the process.
