Human Centered Lawyering

A Reimagining of Legal Services

Argentum Law grew from a meeting over coffee about what was wrong with the legal industry and how to be better and happier lawyers.

We went back to basics of what we loved about our work - being integrated into our clients' teams and forming part of their "strategic mind". We crafted a fee structure that heavily emphasized the role of the working attorney, acknowledged the roles of originators and stripped fees down to the bare minimum.

Central to our goal was truly loving what our clients do and being as enthusiastic as they are for their own success. We have a practice at Argentum Law where we spend hours free of charge just learning the business model of our clients and understanding their pain points.
