Celebrating 15 Years of Success and Community: A Look Back and Exciting Future Ahead
As we wrap up our 15th anniversary year, we are filled with gratitude and excitement. It's been an incredible journey, and we are proud to celebrate all that we have done together with our team, our clients, and the community. To celebrate this milestone, we are delighted to share a special video that takes you back to the roots of our firm—why Imants Holmquist and Hamilton Gardiner, our founding partners, decided to start the firm in the first place, and how Robert Maxwell, partner, joined the team. This video captures the core values that have shaped us over the years and what sets us apart from other firms.
We pride ourselves on a unique workplace culture where the well-being of our people is a top priority. From the very beginning, we’ve focused on building an environment that fosters work-life balance and encourages professional growth. Our associates are not just employees—they’re an integral part of our mission to provide exceptional service to our clients. Client retention and repeat business have been key drivers of our success, and we’re deeply grateful for the trust our clients have placed in us.
