What has been the highlight of your practice over the past 12 months?

A highlight has been really growing my practice in the first year of being a Partner, which grew four-fold and continues to grow. This is so rewarding as it brings in more work from existing clients where I am able to provide a holistic full service family office offering to the client. A new client instruction is rewarding as the holistic approach encourages families to remain clients of the firm for centuries to come.

What advice would you give rising stars/new lawyers in the private client world?

I would recommend that new lawyers in the private client world find a distinguishing feature for their practice that differentiates them from all other private client lawyers. I would also advise that they strive above and beyond the everyday legal work required by the client and by providing additional services they will build a very strong relationship with the client as a trusted advisor.
