Our Team

The CHW team of more than 40 attorneys, paralegals, and administrative staff brings a powerful collection of skills to the practice of affordable housing and community development law. Our “roll up your sleeves” work ethic is ingrained in our firm culture and is often cited by clients as one of the reasons they like working with us. 

Our firm culture strives to balance work and life and foster a family environment. From flexible office arrangements to group outings to gym memberships to wellness lunches, we support the emotional and physical health of our team. We believe this balance enriches not only our individual lives, but also those of our families, friends, business associates, and clients.
