About Folger Levin

Located in San Francisco, Folger Levin is a boutique, full-service firm. We are known for delivering sophisticated legal services of the highest quality in an environment marked by a commitment to enhancing the personal and professional fulfillment of our colleagues.

When this firm was founded, we agreed to serve as stewards of the firm for future generations and aspired to create relationships marked by trust, collaboration, open communication, respect, and an understanding that our joint responsibility for the firm is a source of excitement and pride. That goal continues to shape our approach to client relationships, hiring, and professional development.

We have structured our firm to align our interests with those of our clients, and to create an environment in which attorneys and staff can establish long-term, satisfying, and fulfilling careers. By way of example, we recognize that the common law firm practice of imposing minimum billable hour requirements can create incentives that do not serve the interests of our attorneys, or of our clients. Because service is about quality, not quantity, we do not impose a billable-hour target. Our focus is on devoting as much time as is necessary – no more, no less – to deliver excellent client service, while having the capacity to devote time to learning, growth (professional development), and community service.

We also know that we develop deeper relationships with each other and with clients when we have limited turnover. Every time we hire a new attorney, it is with the hope that this new member of our team will become a partner in the firm. This sets us apart from some firms whose business model depends on a large number of associates and fewer partners. Our focus on long-term relationships directly impacts the quality of the associate experience, as we are motivated to assign interesting work, provide hands-on mentoring, help associates develop direct client relationships, offer a realistic path to partnership, and avoid associate burnout.

Mentorship

We are committed to providing active mentoring, and thereby help talented professionals develop into superb attorneys. Our associates work closely with partners in small teams, affording associates the opportunity to have significant input into strategy and decision-making. Associates can expect to receive detailed and constructive feedback from experienced attorneys on their research and analysis, writing, strategic decision-making, and oral and written communication skills. Such feedback helps associates develop their own authentic, effective approach to advising clients.

Our firm also believes in the value of cross-disciplinary mentoring. So, in addition to working with partners in the Litigation Practice Group, associates can expect to develop relationships with partners from our other departments. For example, in handling employment disputes, our litigation attorney work closely with partners in our labor and employment. Similarly, our litigation attorneys frequently consult with members of the Estate Planning Practice Group on trust litigation matters.
