Case Study: Brand Identity Design for The Law Office of Nigel Phiri, ESQ. LLC

Overview
In the heart of Atlanta’s competitive legal market, The Law Office of Nigel Phiri, ESQ. LLC needed a brand identity that commanded respect and reflected unwavering legal protection. Specializing in cases like wrongful death and car accidents, Attorney Phiri sought a design that projected authority, trust, and readiness for justice.
