Pros
Working for Stratton Law while studying for the bar allowed me to observe and participate in the work environment before deciding to apply for a full time position after passing. Since coming on as a full-time attorney, I have received the same support, flexibility and encouragement from my direct supervisor and the owner of the firm that they have shown my now colleagues. Stratton Law has a unique understanding of the work-life balance that is hard to come by in the legal field. They are committed to working at work and make themselves available for all questions, work product review, and collaboration, while also respecting evenings and weekends. Each attorney controls their own hearing/trials schedule, and the office atmosphere provides a relaxed, encouraging break from client demands. Great compensation, healthcare, benefits, vacation and holidays put this firm ahead of its competitors.
Cons
By the nature of the industry and this particular area of practice, this job does require traveling around the state for certain clients and being in the office/courtroom on a daily basis, which makes remote work challenging.
