What is a client?

I believe that our clients are the most important people in this office, in person, on the telephone, or by email.

I believe that our clients are not an interruption of our work, rather the purpose of it.

We are not doing our clients a favor by serving them. They are doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity to serve them.

Our clients are the people who bring us their wants, dreams, and goals. It is our responsibility to help them pursue their greatest independence and satisfaction.
