Message From Our Chairman

Thank you for your interest in our firm. When Arent Fox adopted the motto ‘Smart in your World’ it was not a boast. Rather, it was created to reflect guiding principles centered on providing first-rate legal work and exceptional service. It was also a promise; a reaffirmation of the founding partners’ pledge to deliver business-oriented legal counsel that would help clients achieve their commercial goals. As a result of this commitment, Arent Fox is internationally recognized in core practice areas where business and government intersect.

Our attorneys understand that hard work and talent are just a starting point for a premier law firm. Complex problems often require interdisciplinary solutions, and should be approached with a practical perspective and managed with maximum efficiency. I take great pride in the dedication our attorneys show to every matter they handle and know that we will commit the necessary time, resources, and innovation to serve the best interests of our clients.

As one of the most diverse general practice law firms in the country, Arent Fox has roots in government service, a focus on legal excellence, and a commitment to the administration of justice stretching back 70 years. Our lawyers have consistently distinguished themselves as leaders in pro bono work, while many continue to play prominent roles in public service.

On behalf of my colleagues, we would welcome a chance to talk more about your legal needs and commercial ambitions. I am confident we can demonstrate why Arent Fox has earned its reputation for understanding our clients’ business, their industry, and their world.

Mark M. Katz
Chairman
