COMMITTED TO OUR CULTURE AND COMMUNITY

25th Anniversary – Brick by Brick

When we opened our doors on April 1, 1995, we were an entrepreneurial start-up law firm. We hired attorneys with grit and empowered them to build a business. This is the foundation upon which we built our firm, and a key element that has enabled our success in the 25 years we’ve been in business.

Since then, we have grown from five attorneys in Denver to over 100 attorneys across ten offices from coast to coast. We’ve held tight to our values and the unique culture they’ve seeded. In the beginning, we cultivated an entrepreneurial spirit out of necessity, but now we maintain that because it’s the best approach for our clients, and our firm. Other than our geography and size, not a lot has changed since 1995.

After 25 years in business, we are looking to our future and the bright path ahead. We are proud of our national expansion, of our commitment to think outside the box and to find creative solutions to our clients’ complex problems. As we look forward to the next chapter of our firm’s history, we still honor our roots and the start-up mentality we were founded on. Brick by brick, we have built upon that ideal and we are proud of who we are today: a strong and successful firm, made up of an amazing team of attorneys and incredible clients we are thankful to represent.

Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey over the last 25 years, we can’t wait to see what the future will hold.

Our Culture

With Messner Reeves, what you see
is what you get.

We don’t rely on smoke and mirrors, or expensive artwork and granite countertops, to impress clients; rather, we have and always will focus on providing the highest quality legal work at a fair rate. Messner Reeves was founded in 1995 by Bryant “Corky” Messner who had the vision to create an entrepreneurial law firm that empowered attorneys to take control of their careers and become leaders in their communities.

Unstuffy. Highly motivated. Focused on the client. We believe that the driving force behind our culture is this entrepreneurial spirit, coupled with our business-friendly approach. From the moment you step into any of our office locations, decorated with artwork created by the children of our clients and employees, you realize we are not your typical law firm. You won’t find bureaucracy, politics, committees or unnecessary meetings in stuffy boardrooms. You will see a collaborative, energetic group of highly skilled professionals dressed comfortably and working hard to create common-sense solutions to complex problems. Our culture allows our attorneys, firm professionals and legal staff to stay on top of our clients’ needs and provide them with the resources required to meet their business objectives.
