Fortz Legal, Called Back to the Stand.

We're excited to announce that Fortz Legal made the Inc. Magazine 5000 list for the fifth time! However, this year is a little different than previous ones. We ranked No. 3568, our highest ranking yet, with an impressive growth of 77% over three years.

For the past decade, we've been proud to serve the legal community and have grown from a small office in Grand Rapids to supporting clients across the country. This is another milestone to reflect the trust our clients place in us, the dedication of our team, and the momentum we’ve built through the second half of our company’s journey,

We're incredibly grateful to everyone who has been part of our story.

Swing, sip, and repeat! We’re proud to have sponsored the Oakland County Bar Association Bar for the Course event last week, with Jason representing our team. This marks the start of our summer golf outings, so keep an eye out for our next drive!

Teamwork doesn't stop at the office. Last week, Fortz Legal hit the kickball field to welcome new team members, build stronger relationships, and celebrate the start of the holiday weekend. Great people make a great team, and we're excited for what's ahead!

Nothing beats face-to-face experiences. We spent the weekend in Detroit and were proud to be an exhibitor at the Michigan Defense Trial Counsel's Annual Meeting & Summer Conference! Jason represented us at our table and connected with so many great people.

Most people know us for court reporting and process service.

What many don’t realize is we also handle E-Discovery and digital forensics projects at every level.

This week alone:

Our ESI project management team is supporting an international matter involving large-scale foreign language data hosting and analysis.

At the same time, we’re handling local mobile device collections for another client using industry-leading forensic technology.

From complex international data matters to targeted phone collections, we help legal teams preserve, collect, host, analyze, and produce critical evidence efficiently and defensibly.

What a great game this past Saturday! Rain was in the forecast, but the sun had other plans. It turned out to be a perfect day on the field.

Congratulations to the Women Lawyers for bringing home the victory, and shoutout to Shaun Fitzpatrick for another game behind the plate. He always brings his A‑game as an umpire!
