    No amount of money would pay me to ever work for this firm again.
    The good thingsSome Lawyers were good to work with.
    The challengesToxic management Secretaries and Coordinators with no Law degree play god and act as though they are practitioners. Shocking culture with a terribly high staff turnover. Absolute palliative of Law firms. It's where careers and people's dignity come to die.
