FIRM PRINCIPLES
The driving force behind Maynard Cooper's inception over twenty years ago was a
shared commitment to five core principles. Our practice continues to be guided
by these principles:
-
To give our clients the very best professional service we can, remembering that
service to our clients is the main reason that we exist.
-
To promote teamwork and respect for each other through support and open
communication.
-
To conduct ourselves in a way that reflects positively on our profession, our
firm and each other.
-
To strike a balance in our personal and professional lives, recognizing
that we all have important commitments to our communities and our families.
-
To be loyal to each other and give priority to the firm's welfare over our
personal interests.
Another hallmark of Maynard Cooper is that every lawyer has an opportunity to
play a significant role in firm decision-making. All shareholders and
associates are invited to participate in firm meetings, and all have a voice in
policy and hiring decisions. For that reason, every lawyer we hire must
demonstrate an aptitude for and dedication to professional excellence, but also
must possess personal qualities that contribute to making our firm an enjoyable
place to work. Ultimately, it is our goal to provide a work environment
that encourages our attorneys to be well-rounded in both their careers and
lives.
