At its core, Critchfield is a business-oriented firm known for its ability to handle complex, high-stakes transactions of all kinds—from mergers and acquisitions to major real estate sales and development. We also provide our clients with leading-edge advice as they prepare their businesses and lives for the future, guiding them through complicated issues of estate, trust, tax, and business succession planning.

Whether our clients’ legal goals are business-related or personal, Critchfield’s attorneys are ready to join with them in common purpose. We will bring to bear our team approach, applying the skill sets of attorneys across different practice areas and offices to ensure that every client’s goals are not just met, but exceeded. We listen to your concerns, provide a clear course of action, and see that plan through to resolution.

Our promise
