Who We Are and What We Do
The law firm of Luftman, Heck and Associates provides aggressive and professional legal representation to each of its clients. We offer the quality of sophisticated litigation services found in larger firms, but without costly overhead, higher fees and conflicts.
The law firm that would become Luftman, Heck & Associates, LLP, was formed in December 2003 by Benjamin L. Luftman and Jeremiah E. Heck. Recent graduates of Capital University Law School in Columbus, OH, Mr. Luftman and Mr. Heck decided to take the bold step of starting their own law firm. Through meticulous preparation and an intense desire to distinguish themselves from others in the field of law, Mr. Luftman and Mr. Heck began their legal careers.
Over the past five years the law firm has expanded significantly both in the scope of legal services provided, as well as in size. Besides Mr. Luftman and Mr. Heck, associate attorneys Bryan C. Barch, David B. Schulz, Scott C. Florin, and Scott M. Grace currently are employed by the law firm, as well as over thirty paralegal and staff members. In addition, there are plans to hire more attorneys and professional staff members at the law firm.
