Akin Advantage
Our culture of talent development, diversity, inclusion, engagement and opportunity enables all lawyers to learn, advance and thrive.
Learn
We cultivate an environment of learning to allow our lawyers to excel as practitioners at the highest level.
Our lawyers attend Akin's flagship in-person academies at key inflection points in their careers, sharpen their practice skills at hands-on trainings and have access to a wealth of learning resources.
Advance
We create opportunities for lawyers to achieve success and satisfaction in their careers.
Our lawyers' continued development is supported by formal and informal feedback, in-house career coaching and a dedicated partner advisor who offers individualized guidance throughout their careers at Akin.
Thrive
We promote a culture of individual and collective achievement by building engagement, connection and collaboration within and outside the Akin community.
Our lawyers are encouraged to participate in initiatives that broaden their experience by undertaking firm citizenship and community leadership roles, working on pro bono matters and participating in Akin JUMP, which allows a lawyer to do a short stay in another office to deepen collaboration and networking.
