At Hinshaw, we value long-term client relationships. That's why we make it a priority to help contribute to our client's success, whether that means solving a problem or helping to achieve their goal. We like to think that we are more than just our clients' "lawyers." We feel we are on the same journey with our clients — to grow their business into a sustainable institution. Sometimes this requires next generation solutions; in other words, a little creativity applied to legal issues or problems. Other times, it requires just purely practical thinking. We do both. Whatever the matter, our advice and counsel are tailored to our clients, which can only come from a strong partnership and deep understanding of their business and objectives.
Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP. practices law in the following areas and works with its clients to provide the best possible legal solutions.
Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP. follows the set of hiring criteria outlined below.
Associate hiring decisions are driven by the needs of the firm's practice groups. Candidates are selected and interviewed by the practice group's members and a member of the firm's Associate Interviewing Committee (AIC). The firm uses a "behavioral interview" format which seeks to identify candidates whose character traits correlate with associates who typically succeed at the firm and are promoted to partnership. Before an offer can be extended, the practice group leader and department leader must concur in the hiring decision and obtain the approval of the firm's three-member Associate Hiring Committee.
Hinshaw & Culbertson does not report any information regarding its pro bono activities.

The Law Firm Diversity Profile contains the firm's self-reported responses to the Vault/MCCA Law Firm Diversity Survey, an annual survey conducted by Vault.com in partnership with the Minority Corporate Counsel Association. Detailed demographic breakdowns of the firm's attorneys by level, race, gender, LGBT and disability status offer a valuable statistical overview, while descriptions of its diversity programs, initiatives and strategic plans provide a comprehensive portrait of the firm's commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace.
Our ten-week summer program is designed to provide law students with a complete and realistic view of our practice areas, as well as the culture of our firm. Summer associates work within the practice groups comprising the six departments of the firm-Defense Litigation, Business Transactions I and II, Business Litigation, Specialty Litigation & Insurance Coverage, and Lawyers for Professionals. This allows the summer associates to fully understand the breadth of the firm's expertise, the opportunities available at the firm and our expectations of new associates. Although the firm views the summer program as a working experience, it is our goal to make a summer position with the firm both intellectually and personally rewarding.
