Junior Associate – Alston & Bird

Company Background

At Alston & Bird, we are as committed to the integration and development of our lateral attorneys as those who join us directly out of law school. In addition to the efforts made within each practice group, we have formal orientation, training, and mentoring programs that extend for several months beyond a lawyer’s first day with the firm. We strive to minimize the stress involved with going through a lateral move and prioritize the integration of our lateral attorneys.Attorneys sitting at conference room table

This commitment is evident in our leadership. Of the 70 leadership positions available at Alston & Bird, more than half are held by lateral attorneys: five Partners Committee members, eight Partners-in-Charge, five Area Coordinators, 18 Practice Group Leaders, and six Hiring Partners.
