Our firm has earned a reputation as a formidable team of lawyers with broad and practical expertise who achieve real results for our clients and observe the highest standards of ethics in our practice.

Our firm offers the diverse skills and experience of a select group of attorneys, paralegals, and our superb professional staff. Our attorneys live and practice in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. Our people are leaders, educators, influential thinkers, and volunteers who contribute to our community in many meaningful ways.

We are a full service law firm. Our attorneys provide representation and counsel in all areas of law from strategic business planning, contracts, medical malpractice, estate and tax planning, domestic relations, employment, civil litigation, and criminal cases, among other areas. Our attorneys collaborate in practice groups to ensure that our clients receive the highest level of service in each field of law.

Our clients are people, families, large and small businesses, non-profit organizations, governments, and institutions. Our business clients represent a cross-section of industries including manufacturing, distribution, sales, service, and professional groups, to mention a few.

Our firm strives to stay on the cutting edge of legal and information technology. Santen & Hughes consistently reviews, invests and upgrades to ensure that we have all the tools to meet the needs of our clients.

The roots of our firm run deep and its branches stretch far. We work hard to develop and maintain cooperative relationships with other attorneys, accountants, bankers, insurance agents, real estate brokers/agents, appraisers, engineers, and other professionals. We are committed to building a vibrant community through service and civic involvement.

Our attorneys achieve results by following common sense principles: we strive to be responsive to our clients’ needs; we listen to our clients and to our adversaries; we research the facts and the law diligently and comprehensively; we advocate creatively and strenuously. We value the trust and loyalty of our many long-standing clients, and we work to earn that trust from our new clients.
