Today as TDG is no longer just the Dolins family members, the firm strives to maintain the family atmosphere for both clients and staff. Many on our team have been a part of the firm for over 10 years which is a source of great pride for the firm. As TDG continues grow, we always want to provide the attention of a small family firm while providing the full range of services of a larger firm. As Steve says, “If our clients are successful, we are successful.”
