Clients want and deserve counsel with good judgment, creative ideas, a tireless work ethic, and good communication skills.  In the crucible of high-stakes litigation, clients have high expectations and need to trust in the personal relationships they have with their lawyers.  We understand those needs and expectations; we set and maintain high standards for ourselves and understand what it means to be a "service-first" business.

Since our founding in 1989, FI&C has developed a national reputation as a leading trial firm capable of handling the most complex and sophisticated of cases.  As was true at the formation of the Firm, over the last few years, FI&C counts among its clients many of the nation's leading businesses, including but not limited to Cargill, Inc., The Procter & Gamble Company, Reed Elsevier, Inc., Iams Company, NCR Corporation, Crown Equipment Corporation, Cox Newspapers, Inc., SuperValu, Inc., Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Harley-Davidson, United Parcel Service and many others.

A history of Dayton's bench and Bar published just prior to the new Millennium comments on FI&C's standing in this manner:

That excellence is not only a hallmark of the firm's heritage, it is also the benchmark we maintain for continued success in the years ahead.

We look forward to the opportunity to work with you, and would welcome the chance to meet with you.
