“The outstanding work of your team is the reason I can sleep at night.”
Deputy Director of Litigation, Fortune 50 Company
Collaboration across every level.
Our clients today can’t afford to wait for us to have multiple levels of decision-making before we get them what they need. The pyramid structure of the past does not work in a post-COVID world where continuous innovation, iteration, and pivoting are table stakes to survival, much less excellence.
Level Legal is a legal services company with a culture and structure built on collaboration, flexibility, and cross-functional expertise. This takes discipline, a learning mindset, and well-defined processes and systems that we follow at all times.
Our core team is dedicated to process, methodology, training, and continuous innovation. The culture we strive for is one where all team members are encouraged to give real-time feedback and ideas for improvement that can be implemented across all initatives.
Is it a “one and done” kind of playbook? No.
Do we attract the thinkers, the boundary pushers, the ones that are never satisfied in giving our clients “good enough”? Yes.
Meet a few of the team members who work in the trenches day-after-day, solving problems as efficiently and effectively as possible.
Our Core Team
Joey Seeber
CEO
“Our Level Legal tagline–and the spirit of all we do here–comes from legendary stories I have read about one of the most trusted soldiers in American history. With each completed mission, this general would submit his reports with the closing line, ‘Yours to count on.’ I can’t think of a better way to convey our commitment to our clients.”
Daniel Bonner, CIPP/US
