Newton and Sullivan is a law firm built from two friends who decided we wanted to practice high-level law but didn't want the typical lawyer life. Top-notch legal work is important. Family...is more important. We have young families and don't want to sacrifice their growth to the altar of the billable hour. Both Chris and Dan are marathoners and have run 4 marathons together, plus one in which Chris only did a half-marathon (lazy, but he won the race).
