At Primmer Piper Eggleston & Cramer, loyalty, integrity and responsiveness are common threads that characterize our legal practice and the individuals who comprise our firm. Defined by our actions, our attorneys strive to respond to all our clients’ needs and deliver high quality service.

Loyalty

The firm has historically sought and served clients with whom we can establish a long term relationship. This relationship is characterized by trust and loyalty running in both directions. By knowing a client’s business and having a personal relationship with the individual decision makers, we believe that we can more effectively deliver quality legal services and real value to our clients.

Integrity

Integrity underpins the pride we take in effective representation and our proactive approach to legal regulatory and legislative matters that serve the best interests of our clients. The firm’s attorneys possess a deep understanding of the political, regulatory, and economic conditions under which commercial entities operate. Savvy insight of financial trends and changes in statutes, case law and regulations enables the firm to provide clients with valuable guidance, keeping them within the legal framework that safeguards a robust commercial environment. Integrity forms the foundation for all our actions and is the basis of every aspect of our firm.

Responsive to clients’ needs

Coupled with loyalty and integrity, the firm provides client-oriented service. Our attorneys are sensitive to our clients' needs and work diligently with companies involved in a variety of industries— insurance companies, captive insurance companies, financial and banking institutions, real estate developershealthcare providers, and others. Through decades of experience and the success of client-focused representation, the size of our firm grew to 70-plus staff and attorneys. Our expansion is also reflected by a widened scope of practice that extends beyond Vermont and New England to businesses nationwide and internationally.

Tradition of Excellence
