2025 SUMMER SOCIAL SOLO FIRM SPONSOR

 


Kercsmar & O’Hara practice areas cover the gamut of business litigation, with an emphasis on commercial disputes, departing employee issues, intellectual property litigation and corporate governance disputes. Our lawyers frequently represent clients faced with bet-the-company litigation, handling numerous lawsuits seeking nine-figure damage awards, yet never ignoring the more common commercial disputes that remain the focus of every business.

While the attorneys at Kercsmar & O’Hara value this public recognition, the highest compliment another lawyer can provide is a client referral. Our client base is comprised almost exclusively of client referrals made by attorneys from all over the country. Each of these clients is treated with personal attention every day, by everyone at the firm.

Kercsmar & O’Hara is focused on our communities as well as our clients. The firm actively fosters a culture of mutual respect and community leadership, and our attorneys regularly serve in community and bar organizations. All of the firm’s attorneys are encouraged to “give back,” because our community is also our clients’ community. We value both.

2025 JULY GENERAL CLE LUNCHEON SPONSOR

 


SCOTTSDALE COMMUNITY BANK IS THE OFFICIAL BANK OF THE SCOTTSDALE BAR ASSOCIATION, and if you’re not already banking with them, it’s well worth exploring the diverse services they offer and the unique benefits they provide.

Banking locally also strengthens our community, with deposits staying local, customer relationships staying strong, and without the employee turnover you see in other banks. This means you get consistent service from people who know you and your practice – and people who have a vested interest in you and your firm’s success. In addition, when you call Scottsdale Community Bank, you immediately talk to a real live person, not a long series of robotic menus. In fact, every client is welcome to have the cell phone numbers of its Bank President and Board Chair to contact 24-7-365. That’s unheard of in the banking industry.

The leadership at Scottsdale Community Bank also has deep local roots, with Bank Founder and former attorney Joe Garagiola Jr inducted in the Arizona Sports Hall of Fame for his many contributions to the state’s sports legacy. The Scottsdale History Hall of Fame also inducted Bank Founder Frank Jacobson last month for his longstanding leadership and service to the community. Plus, Bank Board members serve on the Boards of Directors of many non-profit organizations and government commissions in the Valley including the Arizona Judicial Council.

So. . . if you’re seeking a banking partner that knows our industry, provides an unequaled personal touch and availability, and has a sincere interest in seeing your practice succeed, I suggest that you contact JULIE STONEY at Scottsdale Community Bank via email at jstoney@scbaz.com or her direct phone at 602-370-1776.
