William F. Looney, Jr. - Looney & Grossman LLP
"I noticed that as lawyers' wardrobes became more casual, so did clients wardrobes. No client ever suggested to me that our hourly rates should be reduced merely because the costumes worn by younger lawyers appear to be less expensive. I could not imagine appearing in court with causal clothes and certainly cannot imagine appearing in court in short sleeves, however... who knows what's next...t-shirts and dungarees?"

Rebecca L. Hanovice - Bromberg & Sunstein LLP
"I cannot remember having met with a client while dressed in casual business attire.  I wear a suit to the office if I have scheduled a client meeting, and I keep a spare suit in my office in case a client drops by." 

Dean Papademetriou - Boston Housing Authority
"As in-house counsel, I wear my "uniform" of suit and tie even though some of my clients/colleagues dress more casually (but still according to a dress code policy). I believe that my more formal dress implicitly reminds them and me of the importance of my role in the organization. Nevertheless, seeing my clients practically every day makes us more familiar with each other regardless of dress."
