An individualized approach to performance evaluation, compensation, and advancement.
Meaningful discretionary bonus potential based on productivity, client service, leadership, and overall contributions.
A hybrid schedule generally permitting two remote days each week, with Tuesday typically designated as an in-office day.
A full-service platform with highly regarded complementary practices.
Long-term growth and succession opportunities for an attorney who wants to become an important member of the practice.
The resources and sophistication of a leading regional firm without an overly rigid or bureaucratic environment.
Compensation
Compensation is competitive and individually determined based on experience, qualifications, practice level, market considerations, and the candidate’s overall profile.
The firm also offers discretionary bonus opportunities and a comprehensive benefits package.
