Why "Cicero"?

Marcus Tullius Cicero (c106-43 BC) was a man of action as well as analysis; he was both a politician and a philosopher. He was also a lawyer and was known as a powerful advocate on behalf of his clients.

We do not claim that our advice is in the same class as Cicero's philosophy. We simply hope that he would have approved of our creative solutions to the practical problems faced by our clients.
