Dallas, July 11, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Winstead PC has been ranked among the nation’s 20 Best Law Firms to Work For in the area of Real Estate Law according to the recently released Vault Top 100 Law Firms For 2018. Winstead also remains in the Top 20 Firms to Work For in Texas, for the seventh consecutive year.
This is the first year Winstead has earned overall recognition in a specific category of law, but the firm has consistently maintained its inclusion in the Top 20 Firms to Work For in Texas since 2010. Winstead is ranked in the following categories:
- Overall – Best Law Firms for Real Estate Law (#20) Firms voted strongest in each practice area by associates working in that area at peer firms.
- Texas – Best Law Firms in Texas (#24) Reputations rated by associates of peer firms in their own region. These rankings reveal the most prestigious law firms by region across the U.S.
Vault is highly regarded for its rankings, ratings, and reviews on thousands of top employers and hundreds of internship programs across numerous industries.
“Winstead has always been among the elite real estate firms, said Winstead Chief Recruiting Officer Teresa Schneider. “But we are particularly proud of this recognition because it shows that we practice at a high level while fostering a work environment where young lawyers can hone their skills, thrive and grow with a firm that prioritizes both its clients and its lawyers.
“Winstead’s associate compensation and development structure values more than just billable hours—it takes into account a person’s intangible contributions to the firm, the legal community, and the local community more broadly.” said Winstead Real Estate Associate Holly Magliolo. “The result is a consistent and clear message that the firm sees inherent value in producing associates with a broader understanding of our firm’s role (and our individual roles) in the success of our clients, our firm and our community.”
Various methodologies are employed to obtain these rankings. All are based on associate surveys evaluating various aspects of work life, overall satisfaction; firm culture; hours; substantive work; compensation; business outlook; career outlook; associate/partner relations; leadership transparency; informal and formal training; pro bono; and overall diversity.
