THE POWER OF ALL

At Summit, we believe inclusion sparks innovation. We embrace the differences that make each of us unique and make us stronger as a team. We are committed to advancing diversity within our ranks, which we know creates power through addition: more ideas, improved solutions and a better workplace. The view is better from the Summit –let’s reach it together.

OUR HISTORY

We formed Summit Law Group in 1997 with the goal of revolutionizing the way legal services are provided to law firm customers. Even today, most law firms provide legal service in the same way they did twenty-five years ago. Those firms focus on lawyers, not customers. Their practice model relies on large numbers of people billing large numbers of hours, often without regard for the value of the work to the customer. At Summit, we rejected the traditional law firm model and started from scratch to design a modern law firm founded on a single principle: customer service. Our mission is to think creatively and proactively in formulating the most effective and efficient solutions to our customers’ legal needs.

Summit is one of only eight firms in Washington to receive Benchmark's "Highly Recommended" designation for Litigation.
