They will let you take on a senior role quickly if you demonstrate you can handle the work. Partners are very approachable and will help if they have time
Cons
Staffing on cases is thin. Insurance rates mean they do not pay big law salary
None. Can’t think of a single positive thing about this firm.
Cons
- Toxic environment.
- No training or support.
- Management and HR turns a blind eye to harassment.

- Partners lack professionalism.
- The firm has staff in positions they’re not qualified for. Hired through nepotism.
- Attorneys are also expected to be secretaries and paralegals but you can’t bill for the time you waste doing these functions.
- Culture of substance abuse on the job.
- A boys club.
