Definition: Olea

Olea is the root word for oleaceae, the latin word meaning “olive family.”  Historically olive trees did not bear fruit during war time because they require a great deal of care and cultivation and that was not necessarily available during times of great conflict.

We chose “Olea” as our name because people are the same way, they don’t tend to flourish during times of great conflict.  At Olea LLP we practice law in keeping with this philosophy when dealing with a client’s current legal issue and when trying to prevent future legal problems.   Although its difficult to remember, the legal system is in place to try and help us navigate through a problem and towards a peaceful solution so that we can all move on with our lives.  Rather than remind us of our names (Quincey and Sheehan – Attorneys at Law), we want to remind ourselves of the fundamental purpose of the the law and our purpose as attorneys.
