Southwest Michigan Local Counsel Services
Local Counsel Services in West Michigan and Southwest Michigan
As local counsel, the attorneys at Hamilton Law work regularly, hand-in-hand, with out-of-state attorneys and collaborate on client projects. To ensure cost-effective results, Hamilton Law emphasizes efficient communication with lead counsel.
In addition, given their extensive complex litigation background, local counsel at Hamilton Law can handle the simplest to the most complex aspects of the client's case. This provides great flexibility in the delegation of work between national counsel and local West Michigan and Southwest Michigan counsel.

Case-Specific Approach at Hamilton Law
Because each case is unique, we know that the role of local counsel is never the same from one case to the next. We stand ready to provide as much or little local assistance as is needed to get the job done. We will file pleadings, provide advice on local practice and procedure, discuss our experiences with state and federal judges, research legal issues, assist with discovery, motions, hearings, scheduling conferences, or help with whatever else is needed.
