• Flexible PTO.
• Leadership positions are open to all attorneys in every office.
• Realistic partnership and equity partnership track. All KF attorneys are eligible for partnership, both equity and non-equity. Promotion is based on your ability to do great work and fit our culture, and not on business development.
