ASSOCIATE PRACTICE

Willcox & Savage offers many advantages for an attorney looking to develop a sophisticated, challenging and rewarding practice. The firm's experienced attorneys provide direction and guidance to those just beginning to practice law, while still permitting immediate responsibility. By the end of the first year, new associates have established substantial client contact, and the litigators have appeared in court arguing motions and trying cases.

Our firm distinguishes itself among other firms of similar size and sophistication by affording new associates a great deal of responsibility early in their careers. Litigation associates not only have the opportunity to work on their own cases and to appear in court almost immediately, but many of our litigators try jury cases very early in their careers. Also, litigation associates have the opportunity to work with partners on larger, more complex cases. Our business associates quickly earn first-chair responsibility in transactions. Direct client contact is encouraged and promoted, and our partners work with our associates to develop a specialty and career path. Because of the scope of their responsibility and the breadth of their training, our business associates often find themselves negotiating deals directly with partners at other firms.

For administrative purposes, the firm assigns new associates to a particular practice section, but permits the associate to work outside his or her assigned section, or to move to accommodate evolving interests. Associates are assigned to a particular section based on their interests and the needs of the firm.
