Tressler LLP

What would you, or others, like to see changed at employer?
Tressler is a good place to work. Like any job, your experience will depend on the lawyers you work with day-to-day. It just celebrated its 30th anniversary, but has the feel of a start-up, which is a good thing. You don't feel like some nameless cog in a large machine.

What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
Tressler's culture has always been good, even as the firm weathered the legal recession. The people are generally nice, the lawyers are excellent and associates are given real opportunities to grow as professionals. The associate billable target is 1900 (real) and associates are encouraged to participate in non-billable activities and business development. Partnership is achievable if that is your goal. The place has a much younger vibe than it did a couple of years ago. New management has been dynamic in addressing market challenges, including space, staff and shedding lawyers/practices that were dragging them down. The firm appears better positioned for the future. The firm has embraced part-time positions, working remotely and is generally flexible on personal/vacation time. Some recent departures appear to have been a good thing culturally and lateral partner acquisitions/associate hiring is occurring regularly. Partners are very approachable and the firm has been fairly transparent about its position in the marketplace.

What did you not like about this institution?
Technology is average, but improving. Secretarial support can be spotty depending upon who you are assigned. Benefits are pretty standard.
