We realize that for most clients it is attractive as much as possible to have one lawyer who will both master the business background to the full range of the client’s work and plans and have the technical competence to advise on more than one of the practice areas that are relevant to the client. We therefore insist that each of our more experienced lawyers must have more than one technical specialty and not many clients to look after. In this way we remain versatile without loss of depth or expertise. It is also of importance to us that every client should receive excellent value for any sums that we may charge as fees, and that agreements with clients on both fees and expenses for any assignment must be fully respected. Our primary strategy is to grow only as quickly as by organic growth we can generate exceptionally-able lawyers who have the experience and temperament to be general partners to serve our clients and lead our growth. The original vision was of an independent business law practice led by a partnership into which associates who have served an “apprenticeship” with the practice may be admitted.
The bases for admission to the partnership were to be lawyerly ability and seniority rather than cash purchases of partnership shares or ‘rain-making’ prowess. The original vision is being fully realized.
