A Conversation About Partnership

A very good friend of ours, Marc Marling (he describes himself as a recovering lawyer and entrepeneur)  has on several occasions observed that as law firms go, we give the appearance of operating on a different, and perhaps unique, model.  Mark is not the only one who has made that observation – several of our clients (those who hire lawyers all over the country on a regular basis), have also commented that we do things “differently.”  Our response is that perhaps we are not so unique, we’re just old school – partners in the way lawyers used to be partners, representing clients as a team, building a practice as a team, not competing with one another for clients or business.  In any event, Marc has a new podcast (Corporate Thought), and he pestered us unmercifully to sit with him for an interview about our partnership and how we work together.  You should listen to Marc’s podcast regardless of whether you listen to us.  If you would like to hear our thoughts on partnership, you can find the interview at Corporate Thought:  A Conversation With Dave Ventker and Marissa Henderson.  Fair warning:  the interview is about an hour long,
