"The practice of law offers an unrivaled opportunity to help clients and have a positive influence on the community. Lawyers should be problem-solvers rather than being the problem. And this is the way I approach representing clients, whether in the courtroom or in corporate, municipal, or individual representation.”
Andrew J. Mulder
Andy is recognized as a leading figure in the legal community of Holland and all of Michigan, particularly as a municipal and utility lawyer.
