In ancient Rome, as legend has it, Roman engineers stood behind their work by standing beneath the archway they designed, just as the keystone was being dropped into place. If the arch collapsed, so did their business, so to speak. I've always liked and appreciated this story. The words ROMAN ARCH were chosen to be prominent in the name of our firm to exemplify this same commitment to excellence we strive for on behalf of our clients. We stand firmly behind the advice we impart to our clients with our success being inextricably tied to their success as well.
