The Future We’re Building Toward

The future of the firm is about becoming ever more capable – and more adaptable. Expanding our team means adding depth in areas where our clients need us most, from intellectual property to complex disputes, from strategic advisory work to opportunities that don’t fit into a single category. Growth gives us the ability to serve more fully, without losing the high-touch, personal relationships that define us.

Community will remain at the center. We’re shaping a space that’s not only for legal work, but also for connection, hosting conversations, creating opportunities for collaboration, and bringing together people who might not otherwise cross paths. Our goal is to be more than a firm you call when you need help; we want to be the first call you make when you’re ready to build what’s next.

We will continue to look outward. As culture and business continue to blur, we’re stepping into new circles, working with high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and creative leaders who influence industries well beyond their own. We’re also embracing technological change by integrating AI and other transformative tools to bring sharper insight, faster solutions, and fresh ways of thinking. These innovations enhance how we guide, advise, and collaborate—while keeping relationships and human judgment at the center. Being part of all of these conversations allows us to guide with perspective, open doors, and help our clients move confidently through moments of change.

The future we see for Patrick Doerr is clear: a firm that grows in capability, adaptability, and reach—while staying human at its core; that embraces innovation without losing empathy; that keeps listening, collaborating, and creating with the people it was built to serve. The next chapter isn’t about becoming something different. It’s about deepening what’s already here and continuing to build forward, together.
