Asian Legal Business has recognized Kobre & Kim among a select group of international firms on its 2017 Innovation List. The recognition, based on law firm submissions and a rigorous editorial review, honors law firms that build and sustain a culture allowing for individuals to work more efficiently, assist clients better and remain ahead of their competitors.
The editors write that “Kobre & Kim has invested in building infrastructure around matter management, budgets, knowledge sharing and training for its teams. For example, it has implemented an ‘aggressive, trial-ready approach’ where it attacks each engagement using a vigorous, trial-focused strategy designed to get to the heart of the matter as quickly as possible. After each case is concluded, the firm’s case and knowledge management team meet for a post-mortem discussion for a follow-up.
"The firm supports its lawyers’ career goals. Lawyers are ensured the option to discuss their professional ambitions with partners through a mentor programme and directly with firm’s management. Its training programmes are focused on providing lawyers with the tools needed to develop specific legal skills as well as how to advance at the firm, including career progression.”
