We provide our clients with the pros and cons of all possible courses of action and estimate the costs and benefits to their businesses, including estimated legal fees and whether or not to litigate. In this way, our clients can make the most strategic and financially responsible decisions. We have an unparalleled reputation as both litigators and dealmakers. Our successful track record is a result of our dedication to high standards, ethics, and civility.

OUR ETHOS

We give our personal best to every client and in every situation, including prompt response to our clients' communications. Our highly professional, motivated team of attorneys and support staff offer their expertise, integrity, honesty, and hard work to each and every client.

Adwar Ivko has been a frontrunner in implementing ecological, social and governance (ESG) principles long before it became a mainstream practice. The personal journey of Polina, a Ukraine-born former artist, overcoming adversity with just $300 to her name, inspires the firm’s ethos of empowerment and inclusivity in both its staff and clientele. Stephanie, who in addition to her work at Adwar Ivko, sits as an associate village magistrate and is devoted to preserving the rule of law and equal justice under the law.
