Firm's Hiring and Client Service Policies Featured in National Law Journal

The Firm’s approaches to flex-time work arrangements and alternative fee structures were recently featured by the National Law Journal and Wall Street Journal Law Blog, which described the Firm’s business model as an innovative response to dissatisfaction with traditional big firm structures, especially among women lawyers. New York partner Beth Kaufman described the Firm's business model, which includes the ability to offer permanent, flex-time positions to experienced lawyers and the parallel use of alternative billing arrangements for corporate clients, as the “missing model” that fills gaps in the marketplace. Chicago partner Stephanie Scharf described the Firm’s "ability to attract very talented, experienced lawyers” who prefer the collegiality, focus and flexibility of the Firm's work arrangements.
