From its location in the heart of the city to some strategic acquisitions, this East Coast based firm has done everything in its power to make its DC office something more than a branch office. While the Washington office has the size (over 100 attorneys) and full service practice areas, there is still a bit of an identity crisis in this office, who still defers to the head office for management issues. Associates can expect a reasonable lifestyle with fairly good work (especially in the employee benefits area) but will see other large firms paying a bit more.
