Get your name out there and look for opportunities to bring in more accounts. This firm needs dynamic people working for it to breathe life into it and make people recognize the firm.

This firm has a slow work environment that allows for time to work on cases. You will not feel rushed to get jobs done so you are able to put more quality in the work. The staff is helpful when you need it.

The firm gets lost in the shuffle when it comes to getting noticed in a world of large firms and specialty firms. The identity of the firm isn't really made clear.

Diversity Write a review

Since the firm's inception over 75 years ago, Dilworth Paxson has promoted and fostered a working environment supportive of diversity. In 1952, William T. Coleman Jr., an African-American, in spite of a Harvard law degree and clerkship with U.S. Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, could not get a job in a major Philadelphia law firm until Dilworth made him an offer. Many of the Plaintiff's briefs in Brown v. Board of Education are significantly a Dilworth work product authored by Mr. Coleman. He became a Partner in 1957 and was followed a few years later by Judge Dolores Sloviter, former Chief Judge of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, who became one of the first women Partners in a large Philadelphia firm.
