Many lawyers who join us as laterals are at the top of their field. Others are mid-career or more junior professionals growing their practices. In both cases, we promote the efforts of our lawyers to cultivate special areas of expertise and develop reputations through publishing and speaking opportunities.

We encourage lawyers who join us as laterals to take an active role in trade and professional organizations that help them build valuable relationships in the business and legal communities. Our lawyers contribute regularly to trade publications and law journals, address national and international business and legal conferences, and are known widely as leaders in the profession. We actively support lawyers in these professional development initiatives, and we reward their efforts as part of the ten factors we use to evaluate performance.

More junior laterals also benefit from our Professional Development and Mentoring programs.
