“With Fennemore Forward, I was able to purchase a home and live in an affordable city while staying connected with my colleagues and clients, no matter where they are located. Fennemore’s trust in its employees to perform at a high level, combined with the freedom to lead fulfilling lives outside of work, makes a career here not only sustainable but also truly enjoyable.”
Katherine Kao
Director, Fennemore Forward
“Fennemore’s flexible work policies have made it easier to balance work and home life while still feeling that I am fully part of a firm. I worked remotely prior to joining Fennemore and have found it to be a marked improvement. Fennemore invests heavily in technology to support its numerous offices and remote work stations, so I do not lose time dealing with connectivity issues and it is easy to share information with my assistant. Additionally, management is openly supportive of remote workers and our attorneys are already used to collaborating across multiple offices. Therefore, remote attorneys feel like full members of the firm, working with attorneys in various locations.”
