Twenty-five years ago today, our nation experienced a tragedy that changed us forever.
On this 25th anniversary of September 11, we remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the first responders and ordinary Americans who showed extraordinary courage in the face of unimaginable circumstances.
We honor their memory and reflect on the strength, sacrifice, and unity shown in the days that followed.
We will never forget.

Last week, the Sullivan Evans team traveled to Austin for the Ultimate Playbook CLE, hosted by the Texas Trial Lawyers Association.
Continuing legal education is about more than earning hours—it is about sharpening our skills, learning from other experienced trial lawyers and staying prepared to advocate effectively for our clients.
TTLA’s mission reflects the importance of giving trial lawyers the tools, education and collective insight they need to serve their clients, protect the right to trial by jury and keep pace with an ever-changing legal environment.
We appreciated the opportunity to learn, connect and bring new perspectives back to our practice—and ultimately, to the clients who trust us to represent them. Texas Trial Lawyers Association Mary Beth Sullivan Chase Evans

Sometimes you have to get out of the conference room—and under Montana’s wide-open skies—to see the bigger picture.
Our leadership team spent a few days in Big Sky talking about where we’ve been, where we’re headed, and how we can continue doing our best work for our clients, our team, and our community. There was plenty of strategic planning, but we also made time for fishing, hiking, laughter and a few late-night conversations.
We came home with fresh ideas, stronger connections and an even greater appreciation for what we do—and the people we get to do it with.
