Here is a strong Seattle firm that has had a presence in the Pacific Northwest for a long, long time. While this firm practices in numerous areas, its strongest areas are in the corporate context where it does truly exceptional work. This firm is a lifestyle type of firm in many respects and wants its associates to have lives outside of the law. An additional aspect of this firm is that it is consistently able to attract and retain candidates who are "the cream of the crop". The firm takes its recruiting very seriously and truly makes a major effort to make the associates who join the firm feel welcome as members of the firm. The firm's training is also very solid. Attorneys are encouraged to get involved in numerous outside activities and appear to do so on a regular and ongoing basis.
