WELCOME TO
TRUAX LAW GROUP
YOUR NEWEST TEAM MEMBERS
Our no-nonsense approach to law comes from our construction and business backgrounds. We’re built on a new standard—a solutions-based, communication-driven, client service firm for construction businesses and small businesses.
Our approach is strong in care and value, avoiding cookie-cutter strategies that won’t work for everyone. We’re here as an extension of your team, to be trusted advisors you can turn to for advice even beyond the legal aspects of your company.


OUR PROMISE TO YOU
We spend a lot of time upfront getting to know you and your business because we want you to truly know we’re on your side. Those conversations help all of us get on the same page and figure out the most effective approach for any issue. We’re intentional about explaining the contracts you’re given, the claims process, how court is going to go, and other situations we might run into because we want you to be ahead of the curve. We always have your goals at the top of our minds.
