Our Culture
The culture at Levenfeld Pearlstein is entrepreneurial, business-focused and strategic. It is also driven by our shared desire to do the right thing, making the world a better place – for individuals, communities and the planet.
Many law firms promote their “value proposition”, which they define as high quality work, responsiveness, efficiency and reasonable fees. To us, those are just the basics of doing good work for clients. Doing good legal work isn’t what we aspire to – it’s where we begin.
Entrepreneurial & Business Savvy
Levenfeld Pearlstein differs dramatically both in terms of approach and technical skills. Top talent and an entrepreneurial setting translate into the sophisticated skills and resources of a big firm in a more manageable environment. We expertly navigate complex real estate deals, huge national business transactions, and fierce bet-the-company litigation, and do it with small-firm personal service, fewer layers of lawyers, precise dedicated client teams, greater top-level partner involvement, and more efficiency. We offer the same level of skill and expertise without the bitter big-firm aftertaste.
Further, we understand what it means to run a business. Many of our attorneys are CPAs, MBAs and have previously worked in the industries they now serve. Ultimately, it is our business savvy that sets us apart. Our focus is on the business strategy and long-term goals of our clients, as well as their short-term needs, and we work together as business strategists and advisors. We value innovation, creativity and attention to the smallest detail -- stellar customer service.
Our attorneys do what they do best – focus on you the client, your business and your legal matters. Our business people manage the business with a support team comprised of experts in client service. How we run LP and the strength of our unique culture matters to our clients.
Inspired To Do What’s Right
At Levenfeld Pearlstein corporate social responsibility has been elevated to a key business strategy that drives and defines our corporate culture. Our focus may be considered unusual within the corporate business world but we think it’s good to care about something other than business. In fact, it provides a critical counter balance that fuels our success, both as individuals and as a firm. The current financial crisis has shown us that we live in a global community where many people are affected by our actions.
Together and individually, we care about and value people – our employees, our clients, our business partners and our communities. We care about the planet and the kind of home it will provide for future generations. Our people can choose to work anywhere but they have come to LP because our culture reflects their own beliefs and desire to make a difference. We are inspired by our people to do more and provide more opportunities that enable them to facilitate change.
From corporate giving, community outreach, and pro bono efforts to our employee environment and commitment to sustainable business practices, it is our intention to broadly share our goals and example, encouraging others to consider their purpose in life and to do something that counts.
An Unusually Good Firm
All of this, from our extensive business experience to our view of the wider world (is there life beyond the business world?) comes together to create a most remarkable and extraordinarily effective law firm. Call us and see for yourself.
