Michael and Ashleigh Gunter, Partners at the Gunter Group, set out to build a different firm where they leverage strong relationships to achieve great things in partnership with clients. "The firm's driven employees make us who we are, a talented team of leaders with deep and diverse professional experience. The big firm model does not resonate with us," says Michael. "There is a better way to continually deliver high value service. We live where we work, so when we help our clients' communities, we are helping to grow our own."
