Our practice also features a heavy emphasis on arbitration and mediation, which are processes seeking to resolve legal disputes prior to trial.

As a small firm, we are able to take the time that is required to get to know our clients, understand their concerns and consider all aspects of their case. At Splawn Simpson Pitts, we value our clients. Each client is equally important us. We return all calls in a timely fashion and communicate regularly with our clients throughout all stages of the legal process. We work with our clients to provide effective counsel to their legal issues, and furnish problem-solving strategies that to help resolve their legal concerns.
