New litigation attorneys participate in our Trial Academy. The Academy begins in the Fall with weekly presentations by senior firm members who have developed expertise in particular trial techniques. Young lawyers also participate in skills programs designed to enhance such areas as negotiations, client communications and trial skills. The several months of the Academy culminate in a videotaped mini-trial before a judge and jury. Equally comprehensive training is available for associates in our transactional areas.
New lawyers focus on negotiating and drafting techniques.
Our benefits package includes vacation, life, health and disability insurance, 401K, maternity leave, state and local bar association dues, bar exam and review course fees, and moving expenses for new hires. First-year associate compensation is competitive with other major Texas law firms. Each award presented is named for a former Strasburger partner who had distinguished himself as an outstanding member of the firm and community. It is our hope that these awards will help to keep alive the shining examples of excellence demonstrated by our former partners, so that we may never forget their accomplishments and contributions.
