        Values at Verrill

        Decency, honesty, judgment. The values that define us as a law firm are the reason our clients trust us and choose us time and time again. We don’t compromise our values, and our clients don’t compromise on quality.

        Firm History

        While the practice of law has certainly changed since our founding in 1862, the values upon which the firm was built — mutual respect and camaraderie; commitment to public service, the community, and the legal profession — remain at the heart of Verrill today.
