Kelley Drye & Warren LLP attorneys get the best of both worlds. You can expect to work on complex, sophisticated matters with the support and resources of a large firm. You will also benefit from collaborative relationships with more seasoned practitioners and greater access to substantive opportunity early in your career.
Opportunity
Our size is strategic, and offers greater opportunity to take on complex, substantive work early on in your career. We are genuinely collaborative, and get the best solutions for our clients by pulling together teams with a diversity of expertise, perspectives and experience at all levels. As an attorney at Kelley Drye, you can expect to take on big responsibility on small teams, to be involved in strategy, and to have a client-facing role.
We are proud of our growth from within. Successful Kelley Drye lawyers are those who share our commitment to having a collegial, respectful, warm workplace.

Work and Professional Development
We are committed to organic growth at Kelley Drye, and provide support and resources to take your career to the next level. We invest in our attorneys, through mentoring, integration and professional development programs, and by providing the opportunity to work alongside skilled, seasoned professionals with whom you have genuine relationships. We pride ourselves on those relationships, and on our high client service standards, but also value balance, flexibility and well-being.
Entrepreneurial
We are entrepreneurial, and help you cultivate that mindset from day one. Every attorney at Kelley Drye – from first year associates up to our Executive Committee – completes a business development plan each year, and our attorneys are provided business development training and support. This helps pave a clearer path to partnership, and helps you build your brand both within the firm and within the legal community.
