Volyn Law Firm Provides Access To Process Of Law For All<\/i><\/span><\/h2>\n

In setting up this week\u2019s Chamber Corner interview, I began, as always, doing a little research on the company that will be the topic.<\/p>\n

Looking at Jon Volyn\u2019s r\u00e9sum\u00e9, one would expect to be meeting a man that is closer to the end of his career and looking to retire in our pretty little Valley. That is, until you see that he has accomplished all of this before the age of 40.<\/p>\n

Jon Volyn is a partner in Volyn Law Firm in Hailey and started his legal career in Idaho in 2001. Before moving to the Wood River Valley, Jon had been a partner in one of Idaho\u2019s largest law firms, had been recognized as one of Idaho\u2019s Top 100 Litigators and Top 40 under 40, owned his own law firm, has served two terms as a magistrate commissioner, and was a District Bar president.<\/p>\n

With all of this under his belt at just this point in his career, why make the switch to the small-town life of the Wood River Valley?<\/p>\n

\u201cI know the importance of finding the quality of my daily life, not in my income,\u201d Jon said in a recent interview. \u201cI chose to move away from the pursuit of power and money that come with being a lawyer in a more metropolitan area. I first visited the Valley over a decade ago and knew that this was where I wanted to be. Everything that I\u2019ve done from that moment has been getting me closer to this reality.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jon knew early in his schooling that he would do something that gave him the ability to help people.<\/p>\n

\u201cI value the opportunity to work through problems and find solutions for my clients,\u201d Jon notes. \u201cI really love the idea that lawyers are inherently involved with shaping our society. There isn\u2019t a single aspect of our lives that has not been affected by the law and being able to give the average citizen access to and the power of that process is what gets me up every morning.\u201d<\/p>\n

And Jon is fairly vocal when it comes to fighting for his clients.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the reasons I love my chosen profession is that this is a lifelong career,\u201d Jon adds. \u201cIf someone has been injured, harmed, wronged or made to feel prejudiced against, it\u2019s a lawyer that helps them fight for their justice and a remedy.\u201d<\/p>\n

And now that he\u2019s been in the Valley for a while, any surprises?<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m actually amazed at how happy people are here in the Valley,\u201d Jon enthuses. \u201cEvery day I meet new people and they continue to surprise me with their energy and enthusiasm for living. Most people have chosen to live here because of something they are passionate about, something that inspires them. I knew that\u2019s what I wanted for myself, but it\u2019s great to know I\u2019ve surrounded myself with such like-minded people just by moving to this area.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of the first things Jon did when he moved to the Valley was to join The Chamber.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important to be connected in this Valley and The Chamber helped me do that right away,\u201d Jon adds. \u201cI would tell anyone living in the Valley to join The Chamber and get involved.\u201d<\/p>\n
