Analysts immediately join case teams and closely collaborate with the firm’s lawyers, enjoying levels of responsibility and client contact surpassing what other law firms offer. Analysts also support knowledge management and global business development to drive the firm’s practice and product innovation forward.

General duties include factual and financial analysis; legal and open-source research; preparation of court papers; document review and analysis; substantive factual drafting; overseeing case team workflow and project management; and attendance in court or client meetings under lawyer supervision.

All Analysts have opportunities for advancement after their first year, including transitioning to management roles, exclusively focusing in practice areas and/or potentially transferring to other offices worldwide. Compensation and benefits are highly competitive with top-tier global consulting firms and local markets.
