Culture
Our Unique Culture
This is critically important. Our culture is not for everyone. We know that and understand that our values and the values of our employees need to align. This is something that makes us different from other law firms. We insist that all prospective employees thoroughly review the JW Way and talk to multiple of our employees to determine if we will be a good fit.
Our firm is run as a Conscious Capitalism business. This means that we don’t just focus on making as much money as possible, we focus on benefitting all stakeholders involved in our business, which includes employees, vendors, clients and the community.
