We have the perfect role for an engaging professional like you!

Why join us?

Close your eyes and try to imagine for a minute what the ideal Am Law 100 law firm could be... what a law firm should be.

Imagine what its values would be and how it would treat its people and its clients. Imagine a firm that stood for something intentional and meaningful. Can you?

We can. We did. that’s precisely what we’re endeavoring to build.

Obviously, top firms provide superior legal skills and client service. That’s the bare minimum―the price of admission. , we created a firm that treats everyone with the utmost respect―top to bottom and side to side. A true meritocracy where its personnel effortlessly work shoulder-to-shoulder and across practices and offices, creating the opportunity for every individual to achieve their very best and thereby can do their best for clients.

We’ve found that our platform offers the ideal opportunity both for rainmakers who want to dramatically grow their practices and for service lawyers who seek challenging work and an environment that sincerely values their important contributions.

Enthusiastically diverse and unreservedly supportive of every lawyer, staff, and professional member of the firm, we continuously invest in our people to help them achieve their personal and professional goals. We hold high expectations of ourselves and each other, with a service mindset of going beyond–proactively anticipating needs and delivering more than requested.

The culture values its people–their goals, their families, and their personal and professional development. In so doing, we believe we are best placed to do the same for our clients.

We vigorously protect our culture. This means we don’t bolt on hundreds of lawyers at a time in an ongoing series of acquisitions. Instead, we have grown in ones and twos, by finding like-minded people who fit our style, value our values, and want to help us build the nation’s best domestic law firm. That’s a tough way to grow. But we’re committed to avoiding the large mergers or costly international offices that can distract us from our mission.

We’ve never aspired simply to be big. We have learned that if you build it, they will come. Our Am Law 100 size is simply what happens when you offer something that people are longing for. Top legal recruiters regularly tell us that when people learn what we offer, they want to be part of it. So, we grow.

That’s what we think a law firm should be. Does that sound like something you would like to be part of? If so, whether you’re just starting your exciting new career or considering making a change for the right opportunity, let’s start a conversation.
