Porter Hedges LLP

Tell your people to think before they shoot.

Very strongly worded letters.

Possibly stupid enough to break nearly every employee protection law they have in Texas on behalf of their client. Texas has very little employee protection laws btw.

They threatened to sue me on behalf their client (especially if I ever contact a member of their client's business) and now do not respond to me even when I do things like contact members of client's business to transmit messages to their law firm.

Management needs to ensure that everyone is being treated respectfully at all times, including the support staff. This would help morale tremendously.

There is a very good training program in place here and the leadership team does a great job developing the associates. There is also a level of teamwork here that I don't think many other firms share.

Some of the more tenured associates are cliquish and prone to treating others badly. This is especially true when they are interacting with support staff.
