Chipman Brown Cicero & Cole, LLP combines uniquely talented lawyers who represent clients in the way they want to be represented—aggressively and cost-effectively, with creativity and energy.

Each of our seasoned partners has years of experience at large multinational law firms.  To be sure, our attorneys have been involved in many of the largest and most complicated business reorganizations, out-of-court restructuring matters, workouts, liquidations and distressed acquisitions and sales in Delaware and New York state and federal courts, as well as other jurisdictions across the country. 

Because we are a boutique bankruptcy and litigation shop, our hourly rates are significantly lower than those of large multinational law firms.  We nevertheless offer our clients the same uniquely talented lawyers who can represent them in the way they want to be represented—aggressively and cost-effectively. 

Finally, we take a unified team approach with our clients.  Indeed, we are proud of our fierce commitment to finding aggressive and innovative approaches to our clients’ most complex legal challenges, while maintaining fidelity to our culture of professionalism, integrity, and collaboration.

Core Values

Our ongoing success is built upon the core cultural values that have propelled us forward for over 90 years.

  • Client-Focused: Lawyers and professionals promptly respond to clients, strive to understand and achieve the clients’ goals, and develop and maintain excellent client relationships.
  • Teamwork: Whenever appropriate, work is delegated and clients are serviced by teams. We value a work environment where every person’s contribution to servicing clients’ needs and pro bono efforts is fairly recognized and rewarded.
  • Work Ethic: Lawyers consistently work hard and recognize there are times when personal sacrifice may be necessary to address clients’ needs. The firm strives, however, to value the desire to devote time to a satisfying and rewarding life away from work, including community involvement.
  • Integrity: We value honesty, candor, and ethical behavior, and we enforce those values by holding individuals accountable.
  • Lawyering: We value clear thinking, creative and efficient problem-solving, plain speaking, persuasive writing, and adhering to the highest standards of ethics and professionalism.
  • Mutual Respect: Relationships are respectful, civil, and collegial.
  • Diversity: Diversity at all levels of the firm enhances our ability to compete and serve clients.
  • Professional Development: Professionals are attracted and retained by providing a work environment characterized by mutual respect, mentoring, skill development, and the level of responsibility each professional demonstrates the ability to handle.
  • Decisions: The partners make decisions by striving to arrive at a consensus. Leaders practice what they preach.
