The office is a complete mess. It is a very dysfunctional firm ran by dysfunctional partners. Someone mentioned “hostile/ toxic work environment and extreme gaslighting”… Truer words about this firm were never spoke and it is awful. Almost every single team member on the firm website is no longer employed there. The firm is unable to get a grip on their good employees and does not value the good people. They have lost so many good ones. Look and ask around, almost nobody has been there more than 2 years with the exception of a couple of administrative employees/ pre-suit assistant that does not deal with the litigation and a longtime paralegal and attorney that have special treatment. Longevity of employees is always a red flag. High turnover is an understatement and because of the turnover, the attorneys and paralegals suffer. The turnover is just sad to see and I believe the partners somewhat enjoy it. Unprofessional work ethic and environment. No proper training or leadership for Associates or Paralegals. A lot is expected of both of these positions because you are considered salary so be prepared to be overworked and under appreciated. Paralegals have a very uncomfortable office work setting to properly work with no option to work from home or in a quiet personal office space because you have at least 5 people sitting 2 feet away from each other talking over each other. This setup is great if you are very new in the field and want to pick up on experience since there is no proper training or leadership however, if you have experience it is overwhelming and a constant distraction. Unless you are desperate, you can do better and find a better law firm to work at.
