Bricker & Eckler is a leading Midwest law firm with offices throughout Ohio and clients across the country. Here’s what makes us different:
Industry Focus. With particular strength serving clients in public finance, education, litigation, energy, public utilities, financial services, insurance and health care, we resolve and prevent legal issues using our in-depth knowledge and connections in these industries.
Client Relationships. Bricker has earned a strong reputation for exceptional service. To us, service means not only being responsive, accessible and reliable but also being client-focused and understanding each client’s business, industry and measures of success. Our client relationships are built on trust, partnership and shared goals.
Depth Where it Counts. We address our clients’ aspirational goals and needs with multi-disciplinary teams of attorneys including the sophisticated litigators, transactional and government/regulatory attorneys our clients rely on.
Pro Bono
Bricker’s culture promotes and embraces the need to conduct work for charitable, civic and community organizations. We greet pro bono matters with diligence and enthusiasm, and by giving our attorneys billable hour credit for these activities, they are respected with the same value and credibility as other work. Unlike other firms, however, pro bono activity at Bricker & Eckler does not trickle down through the system. Attorneys at all levels, including partners, willingly engage in these matters and are active in their volunteer commitments.
Community
A cornerstone of our foundation, Bricker has a strong commitment to the communities in which we live and work. As a firm and as individuals, we support our communities through active involvement in local organizations and programs. The firm is recognized for its participation in hunger and wellness initiatives, the arts and humanities, education, health and human services, and environmental and civic endeavors.
Our attorneys are encouraged to give back to the community, devoting time and resources to causes and organizations about which they are passionate. Bricker & Eckler is represented on the boards of higher education institutions and major nonprofits as well as the professional societies and associations where our clients gather.
