Vicevich Law was formed to foster the development of a new model of law practice. The explosion of technology has changed the practice of law. Law firms anchored to a physical site and reliant on over-specialization, large support staff, and paper files became obsolete rapidly in the last decade. The State Bar of Montana recognizes that law practice in Montana is falling behind the national trend of adapting to technology. Many courts now only accept electronic filings and the electronic courtroom has arrived. Exhibits and transcripts are available instantly in court to judges, lawyers, and...

My family’s hard-earned money was flowing into the lawyer’s coffers, and he acted like he was doing my family a favor. I never wanted to feel that helpless again. So I applied to law school.
My mother raised me as a single parent for much of my childhood and struggled to make ends meet. I can appreciate...

I am a managing partner at Axilon Law, a small firm of very talented litigation attorneys scattered in four offices across the state. The lawyers I try to emulate not only present stirring arguments and know how to elicit testimony to strengthen their clients' cases, but also are experts in keeping their clients out of court as much as possible. I love being in court, and I have been recognized for my talents in that realm, but my clients never enjoy the experience. My job isn't to show off my talents; it is to protect my clients'...
