Company Profile

WE STARTED BY CHANGING ONE SIMPLE RULE At traditional law firms, the attorney who brings a client on board “owns” that client, often isolating them from the rest of the firm — even when it’s to the client’s detriment. At Mayer, that was the first rule to go: We take a team approach that gives you access to the attorneys whose experience and background best match your needs. First and foremost, we’re here to serve you. YOU’LL NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE Vibrant. Entrepreneurial. Client-centric. Focused. Are we great attorneys who understand your business, or smart business people who know the law? If you have trouble deciding, then we’ve succeeded. We love business. We know the law. And it shows in everything we do. A RIGHT-SIZED APPROACH Our clients run the gamut from start-ups to Fortune 500 companies, and everything in between. Clients of all sizes appreciate our flexibility; it gives us the agility to deliver the precise scope of capabilities and advice they need. A COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY Our firm is committed to promoting an environment of diversity and inclusion in our offices. We understand that a culture of inclusivity is a vital component of innovation. Through diversity, we can better serve our clients and community. By fostering a community of talented professionals from various backgrounds, we are able to provide a vibrant, entrepreneurial, client-centric, and focused environment. Our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee is designed to support recruitment, retention, and community outreach.
