Has potential to be great, but work is still needed

Pros

There are opportunities to speak directly with partners and ask questions. Guidance and mentorship are also provided, but only if you specifically seek it out. There are also great bonus incentives.

Cons

There is not a lot of work-life balance and the partners can be very demanding. It sometimes feels like partners have forgotton what it was like to be an associate, and expect a newer attorney to work as if they have been in the field for 30+ years.

Our team takes pride in working together to meet client and case demands. We also understand your concern about billing expectations. In a client-focused practice, maintaining both a high level of service and productivity is essential to delivering value, but we recognize the importance of balance and professional growth as well. The firm has experienced unprecedented growth over the past five years, which has naturally increased workload and billing demands.
