About Craig Lauchner
Counsel that understands capital constraints—and business reality
Practicing at large and mid-sized firms, Craig noticed a recurring theme: entrepreneurs and growing businesses are often priced out of the legal services market. Small and middle-market companies have many of the same needs as large corporations, but rising legal fees can dissuade owners from getting the counsel they need.
Lauchner PLLC was founded to address that gap—with responsive advice, litigation experience, and a model aligned with how growing businesses actually operate.
