Practice Groups

At DTC, we take a team approach to offering legal services.  Our attorneys all work in more than one practice area, creating breadth and diversity as well as deep legal expertise within each practice group.  We believe our clients can often be served best by providing them with the collective wisdom and experience of our firm.

DTC’s Practice Groups have expertise in the following major areas of the law:
