Our Core Values

Our mission would be impossible without the expertise of our people and the values that bind us together.

At CGL, we bring together the top experts in criminal justice; each of them with extensive experience in planning, designing, maintaining or managing justice facilities and systems. Our team offers more knowledge than any firm in the criminal justice industry, with field data dating back nearly 50 years. Our team is not only familiar with best practices in criminal justice and maintenance – we teach them. But more impressive than our experience or expertise in the field, is our unwavering dedication to upholding our core values.
