A recent merger has put this firm on the map on a global scale, although the firm's reputation is rather regional.
Very much substance over form, this firm boasts international clientele and a sizable New York office without much fanfare of notoriety.
We like this firm because, with a the headquarters in a smaller legal market, the philosophy of the firm is more lifestyle oriented than some of the large New York firms.
Although associates won't get as many oohs and ahs after pulling out their business card, the sophistication of work and glamour factor with the international clientele competes with some of the big New York shops.
For associates willing to forgo a bit in salary, the more than adequate New York office is the best of both worlds in terms of work and lifestyle.
