"Needed a firm that was more efficient and cost-effective, followed instructions, and didn’t ‘over-do’ assistance required."

"We had been pushed down the priority list at a larger firm. We see ourselves as a growing, dynamic organization and wanted a law firm that fit that mold."

"We used to have two firms; SouthBank was less expensive and we were happy with their work so we consolidated with them."

"Big firm experience is helpful. They perform at that level and bring that level of talent with a smaller, more responsive environment."

"Happy. Efficient and cost-effective. Filled the need. Timely in responses. With one exception, budgets were well-managed and that case involved a change in scope."

"Always available and extremely responsive."

"Came highly recommended and have lived up to it."

"Nothing negative. Like their team concept. They’re open to feedback, and I look to have them more engaged in our business than previous firms. Our key decision-makers have been impressed to date."
