Thompson & Knight SURVEY SAYS


Vault’s Verdict: Associates at Thompson & Knight say they’ve found the law firm holy grail—interesting, complex deals and cases without round-the-clock hours expectations.

Associate Life

Satisfaction
• “I am very satisfied with my job. This firm is full of partners who really invest in the associates and provide great opportunities for professional growth.”
• “I am delighted to call myself a Thompson & Knight attorney. I knew Thompson & Knight was a special place from my time spent here as a summer clerk. But I have been pleasantly surprised by my experience as a full-time associate—the richness and collegiality of the culture, and the diversity and excitement of the work, make Thompson & Knight a rare gem among BigLaw firms.”
• “The firm culture is wonderful and the people are great. However, the work load can be demanding and almost overwhelming at times.”
• “[It is the] best of both worlds. TK offers the ability to work on complex and sophisticated matters like larger firms, but also allows for the work/life balance found at smaller firms.”
