A Message from the Cleveland Partner in Charge

For over 16 years, Buckingham's Cleveland office has served the firm’s clients in a variety of areas. Our attorneys are recognized as leaders in their fields, including intellectual property litigation, commercial litigation, employment and labor, health and medicine, real estate and construction, probate litigation, trust and estates, business and corporate law, and workers’ compensation. Each of these groups work diligently to assist their clients through a variety of complex legal issues.  We have some of the best lawyers in the community.  

Our Cleveland office is also committed to serving our community. In fact, our attorneys and staff provide countless hours of volunteer work to the communities that we serve. Many of our attorneys serve as directors on boards of nonprofit organizations, and our office as a whole provides support to many local charities. For example, we have ongoing commitments to The Littlest Heroes, a northeast Ohio organization that provides support to children with cancer and their families, and Achievement Centers for Children, a center of support and expertise for children with special needs.

On behalf of our Cleveland office, we want to thank you, our clients, for trusting us to act as your legal counsel.
