We’re Honored to be Honored

Our awards are more than a badge of honor. They represent the supportive, inclusive, and fun workplace culture we have created as we do our best work. Our reputation of excellence stems from our commitment to our clients and helps us attract a talented team.

Please wait while we gather your results.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Diversity in perspectives and backgrounds is vital to understanding our clients’ needs and to attracting and keeping talented people. We recruit with diverse lived experiences top of mind because it creates a more dynamic, productive, and meaningful workplace.

We cultivate a culture of connection by promoting collaborative teamwork and fostering a reciprocal mentoring environment that embraces learning from all levels—inside and outside of our offices.

And as we mark our success, we know there is always room to do better.

Our DEI Commitment

Growth at Every Stage

We invest in our people and prioritize their growth and development. Here, you can establish a solid foundation for a lasting career. As your interests and skills evolve, we support you in taking strides forward to reach your full potential.

Starting Your Career

You are part of our community from day one. Mentoring is an essential part of our culture, so expect many learning opportunities as you team up on challenging, high-profile work. With creativity at our core, we develop the best solutions for our clients while offering challenging work for you to learn.
 

The Flexibility to Grow

Our size is our sweet spot. We offer opportunities in different practices, departments, or responsibilities outside your current role. We’ll help you create your own path for growth and support you on your journey. We value teamwork, not competition because it helps us create better solutions for our clients and a more satisfying work environment.
 

Development Opportunities Aligned with Your Interests

We provide an avenue for growth through personal development, including continuing education courses, conferences, professional licenses and certifications, membership in professional associations, and tuition reimbursement. When team members propose their own professional development ideas, they’re met with encouragement and financial support. 

Committed Leadership

Shape your future in an environment that values teamwork and trust. Our compensation approach encourages our leaders to elevate those around them through mentoring, collaboration, and shared decision-making. And compensation isn’t the only incentive. All levels of leadership view developing others as an investment in our people and the firm's continued growth.

What makes us different than other law firms?

You’ll develop both personally and professionally in directions that challenge you in a supportive environment. We’ll help you elevate what’s unique in you to thrive.
