We have outstanding civil and white collar criminal litigation capabilities, and practice in courts across the nation. We also provide a broad range of corporate and regulatory representation. Associates are hired from our summer program, judicial clerkships, and directly out of law school. We seek lawyers who share our commitment to representation and advocacy of the highest quality. We also look for a high degree of initiative and the ability to take on substantial responsibility quickly.
New lawyers have an opportunity to work in various subject areas and with many different partners.
We assign front-line responsibllity to associates early, from working directly with clients and consultants to conducting discovery and arguing motions. We therefore require excellent analytical, writing, and interpersonal skills. There are numerous opportunities for client contact, court appearances, and travel. Associates are integrated into firm administration and management, and have a voice in many firm policies. These groups are not departments that limit the scope of an attorney's practice, but are forums used for marketing, discussing recent developments and training associates.
