TEAMWORK MAKES DREAMWORK

Why building a collaborative, team-orientated culture can exponentially benefit lawyers and law firms alike “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” – Helen Keller  As lawyers, we are trained to be individualistic, independent thinkers, self-reliant and territorial – holding on to and being very protective of our seemingly valuable resources,
