We do our best to help foster a flexible office environment where attorneys achieve a high level of professional satisfaction while in the office and also are able to enjoy their lives outside the firm. Attorneys at the firm enjoy a strong sense of camaraderie and trust among their peers. Our firm culture fosters a collegial environment and does not focus on unrealistic expectations or excessively competitive demands. The firm offers salaries that are competitive with other mid-size Boston law firms and a benefits program equal to or better than those of larger firms in our area. Attorneys generally work between nine and ten hours per day.
Hours do vary depending on the needs of clients and projects on which the attorney is involved.
Complex business transactions, trials and other important deadlines sometimes require increased working hours. While the nature of our profession requires a high level of commitment, we believe that it is important for all of our attorneys to have interests outside of the office and to have time to pursue their personal goals. The firm utilizes a Mentor Program to help assimilate new associates into the firm. Each new associate, whether entering the firm as a lateral or coming straight from law school, is assigned another more senior associate within the firm who outlines firm policies, work environment and answers any questions the new associate might have. The mentoring program lasts for months and consists of scheduled meetings to help foster the relationship.
