Our DNA values

We ask how tomorrow can be better than today

We welcome and adapt to change
that can drive innovation and growth
for our customers. We are a team of
critical thinkers who question what’s
in front of us.

We are passionate about solving our customers’ challenges

We know that having a deep
understanding of our customers —
inside and outside of the business
— comes before we can design any
product or feature.

Our ideas break boundaries

We work together to turn our
local successes into global
successes by sharing our
innovations with every Dye &
Durham market.

We value different perspectives and encourage dialogue

We regularly ask questions of each
other, consider different answers,
and work together to achieve
common goals.

We take ownership and celebrate together

We are accountable for our
contributions to the company’s overall
success, and we acknowledge those of
our teammates across the business.

“A 45-year history, 11,000 users, raft of online reviews, rich-yet-simple functionality, complete practice management system created especially for law firms can’t be wrong. We stand by our decision to go with Quill. We’re sure you would too.”
