Deep Island Roots, World View
In 1963 when it was founded, our firm broke ground as the first in Hawaii with Caucasian and Asian named partners, Frank Damon and Henry Shigekane. The ethnic and cultural diversity in our origins continues, reflected by our ability to offer client services in Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Chinese and French in addition to English.
At Damon Key, we think that firms are best judged by their people. Ours are committed, energetic and enthusiastic. We relish challenges. We temper intelligence and determination with wisdom conferred by a healthy sense of humor, a variety of experiences and a worldview that includes devotion to community and friends. Our firm attracts some of the freshest, brightest talents in law.
Since our beginning 50 years ago, we have remained first and foremost creative, cost-effective problem solvers. We have just over two dozen attorneys who offer a wide range of services for our clients. We have deep roots in the islands’ communities, evidenced by the wide range of professional and service organizations in which our attorneys participate.
Clients benefit from the depth of expertise and diverse backgrounds of our attorneys, the synergy of working relationships within the firm, our multi-language capabilities, and our experience in business management, construction, teaching, science and engineering. We have earned a reputation for preventing and resolving client problems. We consistently strive to achieve cost-effective results, while keeping each client informed throughout the process. We understand that success is measured by client satisfaction.
Our office is in the center of the Honolulu business district, taking the 16th floor of Pauahi Tower at Bishop Square. We are the sole Hawaii firm that is part of the Meritas network of more than 186 independent law firms in at least 90 countries.
