We celebrate the unique
qualities of each individual who joins us. We
recruit lawyers from among the top students at
leading national and regional law schools. The
varied backgrounds of our attorneys reflect the
Firm’s tradition of diversity, fueling the
development of a full-service practice and enriching
the day-to-day interaction among our attorneys and
with our clients. Having hired top-quality
associates, we do not hide them in the library. Our
associates know the excitement of the “big case,”
and learn in the most effective way – by accepting
responsibility for significant projects from the
beginning of their careers, working directly with
seasoned partners, senior associates and clients.
For our long-term success, our associates should
understand the process by which a law firm becomes
financially successful. Associates are guided and
encouraged to cultivate business development skills,
with the long-term goal of attracting new clients or
additional business from existing clients. The
Firm’s officers meet annually with all associates to
share proprietary information regarding the Firm’s
performance in the preceding year and projections
for the future. In addition,
leadership skills can be sharpened outside the
office while fulfilling our responsibility to our
profession and communities. As a result, our
attorneys can be found at all levels of leadership
in bar associations, and civic and charitable
organizations. Our attorneys frequently engage in
pro bono legal activities and many other volunteer
projects.
