Testimonials

‘Their people are a great asset to Fenwick & West as they are knowledgeable, kind and explain things very well to their clients. They are extremely knowledgeable on all areas of their practice and provide practical advice.’
‘The partners are always copied on emails as well as in attendance for calls but allow the engagements to be run by associates, under guidance. In the years that I have worked with them I have seen many associates vastly improve their skill sets, increase their knowledge base and get to move on to many different types of projects and issues, and therefore move up within the firm. I am always impressed with the caliber of individuals that they hire.’
