"The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers."

William Shakespeare, Henry VI, part 2

"...Monthly expenses, Lexis fees, Xeroxing. An entire forest in the Northwest must have given its life in Xerox paper just for this one trial. I said to Mel, 'Can't we just have one meeting, all read from the same sheet of paper, pass it around?'"

Uncle Junior Soprano, Season IV: Episode 40


Constructing Solutions

The Lyon Firm P.A. is regarded as one of the premier boutique law firms in the country. With over 28 years of experience in construction, energy and commercial law, the firm's founder, Fred Lyon, shapes the philosophy of this iconoclastic practice. With its proactive and innovative approach to the resolution of disputes, the firm distinguishes itself through its commitment to Economy and Efficiency.

Economy. Shakespeare was deeply suspicious of lawyers. Deservedly so. As Uncle Junior Soprano lamented, law firm billing for expenses is based on an antiquated model resistant to change. Law firms remain one of the few business organizations which continue to bill clients for routine overhead expenses like long distance, postage, on-site copying, and faxes. The Lyon Firm does not bill these routine expenses. In addition, it does not bill for overnight delivery charges of less than $50, local travel, or travel time.

Efficiency. In order to serve client needs most efficiently, The Lyon Firm is structured to avoid unnecessary overhead. Matters are staffed in accordance with the client's requirements, not simply to enhance billing time to insure that excessive monthly overhead can be absorbed. Fred Lyon personally handles or supervises each and every matter in the Firm. The Firm is allied with several experienced attorneys, who, under the direct guidance of Fred Lyon, provide support on an as needed basis. Given this experience, the Firm is uniquely qualified to economically handle even the most complex matters.
