Team: 2018 has been an extraordinary year. Together, we’ve made an incredible impact for our clients and in our communities. We hope that it has been professionally rewarding for all of you – enabling you to get great experience and achieve your career goals.

For some of you, this year has also required a remarkable level of personal sacrifice, extended time away from home, family and friends, and putting off things you love to do. To express our gratitude and to help you recover, recharge and reconnect, we are offering those members of our team aspecial gift from the firm that we’re calling Unplug On Us.

If you’ve put in 2,400 annualized client representation hours during the 2018 performance year – including pro bono, training and shadowing, innovation time and work for the firm,have been with us for at least six months and are in good standing, we want to make absolutely sure you plan a week’s vacation early in 2019 – and we’ll pick up the cost (up to $15,000).

This is, of course, in addition to the merit and other bonuses that all of our team members may receive under our year-end bonus program (and this year’s special two-part “summer bonus”). It’s intended to support those who have worked at truly extraordinary levels and to ensure you have some time to take care of yourself. If you are eligible to participate in Unplug On Us, you’ll receive an email with more details. We’re also giving the same Unplug On Us vacations to our career associates, project attorneys and legal assistants who worked at a very high intensity level this year.

Please feel free to reach out to me or Siobhan if you have questions.

Thank you to all of you, and best wishes for the holidays and 2019.
