The firm should work on increasing diversity among senior attorney and partner recruiting efforts in an effort to improve junior attorney retention.

The firm has strong corporate and transactional practices. The partners seem to genuinely care about their clients and instill that feeling in junior lawyers.

The firm still struggles to recruit and retain talent from a variety of backgrounds. Despite recent efforts, the senior associates are largely white, and the membership is predominantly white men.

Off hand, I cannot think of any particular partners to avoid, though certainly some are better than others, and some are more conscientious than others.

The firm does a good job of ensuring junior lawyers get opportunities to flourish in their practice by taking on more and more responsibilities.
