Welcome to the Present
This is GQ as you know it. Over the decades, many of our team members have stayed with us, becoming a vital part of our firm's DNA. At the same time, we've welcomed bright new talent, bringing innovation and energy to everything we do. While we've changed a lot over the years, one thing remains constant—our commitment to doing great work with a team that combines deep expertise and fresh ideas.
The Space
The open-plan layout encourages collaboration and transparency. With fewer walls to hide behind, conversations flow easily, sparking creativity and quick problem-solving. Plus, you’ll always know when it’s time for a coffee break—because the entire team will be heading there together!
Every great team needs time to recharge, which is why the wellness area is designed for relaxation and rejuvenation. Whether it’s a quiet space to meditate, stretch, or just catch a moment of peace between meetings, it’s here to remind everyone that work-life balance isn’t just a buzzword.
Because who says productivity should be a seated affair? Our standing desks are perfect for those who like to mix up their workday with a little movement. Great for posture, energy, and keeping things lively—just don’t forget to sit down once in a while!
A debated purchase back in 2017, when the partners were hesitant to splurge on it. Turns out, it was worth every penny—today, it’s the office hero, keeping the team fueled, focused, and happily caffeinated.
A flexible space designed for everything from team gatherings to client meetings—and, let’s be honest, the occasional Friday afternoon social event. It’s where big ideas are born, deals are celebrated, and maybe even a few dance moves make an appearance after hours!
The new era of communication— making it effortless to connect with clients and colleagues wherever they are. It's the modern way we keep our communication sharp and our cases moving forward.

"I feel truly supported in my decision to retire by the incredible team at GQ. This is the perfect time to step back, leaving the firm in great shape. With a depth of talent, a strong partnership and clear vision for the future, GQ continues to provide exceptional legal services. Our clients are in excellent hands."
