In hiring new Associates, we look for many qualities.
Academic excellence is a prerequisite.
In addition, we look for integrity, leadership, self-motivation, loyalty, sound judgment, community involvement, and enthusiasm for the practice of law. The Firm provides an orientation for new Associates on their first day at work. Associates work with supervising attorneys who help the Associate develop as a lawyer and assure that the Associate's work is consistent with the quality we and our clients expect. New Associates are paired with upper-level Associates in a mentor system. Associates have the opportunity to obtain significant responsibilities in matters commensurate with their ability and demonstration of good judgment.
