Our Associates
At Becker & Poliakoff, we recognize that our success is built around the success of our associates. Therefore, we pride ourselves on recruiting, developing and mentoring the best attorneys, while also providing them with a positive and challenging work environment. Our approach is simple – it is a commitment to assist each associate in developing their practice and advancing their career. This is accomplished by providing attorneys access to innovative technology, training and development resources, marketing strategies, in-house counsel and much more. At Becker and Poliakoff, our associates are motivated, have a passion to succeed, and are dedicated to providing the best services to our clients.
The Firm not only seeks to retain and promote the best people, we strive to maintain a culture where attorneys can feel comfortable, respected and valued. The contribution of each of our associates is pivotal to the longevity of the organization. Therefore, we support diversity, provide opportunities for stimulating and complex work experience, cultivate and encourage the working relationship between attorneys and partners, and provide continued teaching and professional growth opportunities.
Lateral Recruitment
Lateral Associates enjoy the best of both worlds at Becker & Poliakoff. As a member of our Firm, our lateral associates are encouraged to cultivate and individualize their practice group, minus the daily issues of management and administrative responsibilities of running a sole practice. We recognize the years of experience and knowledge our lateral associates bring to the Firm and work with them to incorporate it into a win-win situation. As a lateral associate, you have access to other professionals for feedback, second opinions, marketing and administrative support all combined with a professional and ethical environment.
Best Performance
Becker and Poliakoff is a large firm with a small firm atmosphere. As an associate, you are not just another attorney, but a key member of the Becker and Poliakoff team. Professionally, we provide clear performance expectations, training tools, state of the art equipment, along with learning and development programs designed to focus on each person's individual strengths and needs. These strategies help build and mature the practice skills and talents of our associates.
Although we work hard, the Firm also recognizes the importance of life outside of the workplace. We are interested in our employees' personal happiness, therefore, the Firm promotes family values, internal social events, and encourage associates to balance their work and family life. By creating an environment that is centered around dignity, integrity, respect and trust, our employees are top performers because they enjoy being a part of the B&P team.
