“Morris Nichols is the kind of firm where we evaluate associates solely based on work product.  You don’t have to attend a certain school, wear a certain type of clothing or drive a certain kind of car; you don’t need to know someone to make it here."

“The partners take their role as mentors very seriously.  They don’t just assign work; rather, they take time to explain the complexities of the project, and, with an eye toward development, how the particular project reflects the norm for a particular form of transaction.”

“As a first year associate, I attended a meeting of a special committee of the board of directors of USA Networks.  I will never forget being in the room while Paul Allen (Microsoft’s co-founder) and Norman Schwarzkopf attended by phone.” 

“Morris Nichols attorneys go toe-to-toe with lawyers from big firms around the United States, whether in New York, Washington, Dallas, Atlanta or Wilmington.  We regularly go up against big national firms in major pieces of litigation.  We are trying the same cases, playing in the same league.”

“It’s exciting to open up the Wall Street Journal on any given day and see a front-page story about a client and the issues that I have personally worked on.”

“Our legal teams are small, which means that every member of the team has to contribute significantly.  You are expected to get up to speed quickly.  Because of this, I think I am farther along in my career than my peers at other law firms.”

“When I graduated from Harvard Law School, I had many options. I chose Morris Nichols because of the high level of its practice, and because its lawyers were the top of their craft. The firm represents national and multi-national corporations, yet our size gives attorneys at all levels a significant opportunity to become involved.”

"It's hard to save money in New York.  Sure, the big salaries sound impressive, but with Delaware's low cost of living, our salaries go a lot farther and more than make up for the difference.” 

“The attorneys I work with are the kind of people I would go out and grab a cup of coffee or a beer with after work.  They are smart, intellectual, and I know they value the contributions I make and the work that I do.”
