Freeman Lovell was formed around a question from its founding partners, Josh Freeman and Steve Lovell: how might a law firm operate if it were designed specifically around the needs, constraints, and realities of entrepreneurs? According to Freeman, the firm's Founding Partner, that question emerged from years of working within conventional legal structures while advising growing businesses through complex transactions and operational decisions. As business and real estate lawyers, the firm works closely with owners, navigating everything from entity formation and operational growth to property acquisition, development, and transition planning.
Before launching Freeman Lovell, Freeman spent years building a transactional and corporate practice that exposed him to both the opportunities and limitations of existing law firm environments. From his perspective, those years provided the flexibility to reflect on how he wanted to practice law and how legal services could be structured to better support business owners over time. "I had the flexibility to decide how I wanted to practice law," Freeman explains. "That experience ultimately shaped my thinking around building a firm designed with intention and clarity."
