Stimulating Practice
You are unlikely to find a firm with a more exciting, diverse and unusual practice. Because of our
diverse clientele, we are involved in a broad range of fascinating, high-stakes legal issues at any given
time. Many of our cases and appeals contest existing law, and our associates enjoy the added challenge these
cases provide.
Training and Early Experience
The Parrish Law Firm offers an outstanding opportunity for professional development and advancement.
Research and writing skills are critically important for all of our associates, but associates also learn
early through on-the-job training to prepare for and participate in trials, depositions, business transactions,
arbitrations, hearings and client meetings. We encourage our associates to get as much client contact and
courtroom experience as they can. Our associates are directly involved in the management and operation of all
practice areas - we avoid limiting flexibility -- and each associate builds their individual practice according
to their abilities and interests. While early responsibility is the norm, new associates are closely mentored
by our more senior attorneys.
Promotion
There is no single track to partnership at the Parrish Law Firm. Advancement depends on the individual
attorney's development and contribution. Likewise, there is no single, rigid compensation structure. While
all attorneys are expected to contribute reasonable billable hours, attorneys are rewarded for myriad skills
beyond that standard.
Benefits
The diversity of the firm's client base imparts a stability that allows us the weather economic
fluctuations, offering important security for our employees and their families. We are proud of the benefits
we are able to offer. In addition to any compensation through salaries and bonuses, full-time associate
attorneys receive life insurance, health insurance, dental insurance, 401(k) options, maternity and sick
leave, parking privileges and paid continuing education. Associates utilize only the most up-to-date
technology, while quartered in the comfort and beauty of the old "Christ Child Home."
Genial Atmosphere
Our partners, associates, paralegals and support staff work side-by-side each day. Our associates are
encouraged to consult with more senior attorneys in the firm and receive support from other staff as needed.
Although clients are assigned to particular attorneys, all work is conducted with the backing of the entire
firm. We offer a supportive, open and friendly work environment.
