Our Philosophy

The attorneys of Thornhill & Collings, L.C., possess the education and experience which are essential to high-quality representation of clients in all areas of the law. However, at T&C, we demand more of our attorneys than a knowledge of the law. Because we believe that representation of clients involves much more than legal knowledge, we demand that our attorneys adhere to the following principles

I. Integrity

Because of the sensitive nature of most legal matters, we know that a client must be able to trust his/her attorney completely. At Thornhill & Collings, L.C., we strive to earn the trust of each client, and maintain that trust not only through competent representation, but also by dealing fairly and honestly with each and every client.

II. Excellence of Work Product

We strive to ensure that our work for each client - whether it involves drafting a will or trying a complex case - is consistently of the highest quality. In furtherance of this goal, we see to it that all of our records are detailed and clear, as is our communication with our clients.

III. Reasonable Fees

Depending upon the nature of a particular case, our attorneys work by the hour, on retainer, or for contingency fees. Our fees are always reasonable, and are based upon each individual attorney's knowledge and experience. Furthermore, each hourly client receives a monthly statement which sets out in detail the services performed, the individual who performed the services, the time spent, and the charge for each service.

IV. Continuing Legal Education

At Thornhill & Collings, L.C., we know that legal education does not end when an attorney receives his/her law degree. Our attorneys attend Continuing Legal Education seminars throughout the year, as well as additional courses which are pertinent to their particular area of practice.

V. Community Service

The attorneys of Thornhill & Collings, L.C., are committed to community service to the local church, civic, educational and political associations. They serve in capacities as varied as lecturers in the law, sponsors of sport teams and church leaders.

Because our attorneys and staff incorporate these principles into every aspect of our daily practice of law, our clients receive high quality legal representation. At T&C, our attorneys provide to clients not only their knowledge and experience, but also the honesty, clarity of communication, and dedication to excellence which sets our firm apart from others.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
