Practice Philosophy
We have achieved, and continue to maintain, the firm’s preeminent position, through our dedication to the highest standards of client service and a genuine commitment to close collaboration with one another.
Client Service
The interests of our clients always comes first, and our mission is to provide the best possible representation to our clients. We bring to this effort exceptional lawyers from diverse backgrounds and experiences, and we combine our skills in handling highly complex corporate and litigation matters with the deep industry expertise grounded in our regulatory practices. We are thoughtful and creative in our approach to problems, dedicated and hardworking, responsive to our clients’ needs, and zealous and ethical in advocating our clients’ positions and achieving their goals.
In serving client needs, we dedicate ourselves to understanding our clients’ businesses and the particular competitive, regulatory, and political environment in which they operate. By appreciating our clients’ individual circumstances and industries, we can better tailor the staffing of matters to meet their needs, and remain focused on achieving results that bear in mind their particular legal and business objectives. The depth of our expertise – both in substantive law and the industries in which our clients compete – gives us the ability to deliver service of the highest quality. Our culture of cooperation and cross-teaming enhances our ability to deliver such service. Our dedication to client service has yielded results and a reputation that we are proud of. Nothing is more important to us than upholding this tradition of providing the best possible client service and the reputation we have thus earned.
Collegiality and Collaboration
For us, collegiality means that we have a deep respect for all our colleagues, from the newest administrative assistant to the most experienced partner. Everyone here is treated as a professional colleague. We are all on a first-name basis.
Our collegial atmosphere fosters the kind of teamwork that is central to our focus on client service. Clients do not “belong” to individual lawyers: they are clients of the firm. We draw on the skills and substantive expertise of all our professionals in a variety of practice areas and at different levels of seniority to provide the best possible service to our clients. This approach to practice not only contributes to excellence and efficiency in services but also to professional satisfaction and personal friendships among our lawyers. This close collaboration is one of the things that we believe distinguishes us from other firms.
