What do you enjoy most about working at Skadden?

— Jim Carroll / Partner, Litigation (Bio)
Jennifer introduced me to life sciences, then took me under her wing and taught me about the field. Now that she’s the head of our Washington, D.C. litigation practice and I’m a partner, she still remains an incredible mentor, helping me continue to grow and build my practice.

Alisha preceded me as chair of the Boston office’s Hiring Committee, and she helped revamp our approach to recruiting. She handed over a great program and has been a fantastic resource as I have navigated this critical role.

What has made you a better lawyer?
Best career advice I’ve received

– George Zimmerman / Partner, Complex Litigation and Trials (Bio)
“One of the qualities that distinguishes Skadden is our commitment to finding innovative solutions to our clients’ most daunting challenges. The creativity that Tansy brings to her work has made her an integral member of the team since her first day.”
– Boris Bershteyn / Partner, Complex Litigation and Trials; Antitrust/Competition (Bio)
“Tansy and I have had a close friendship for nearly a decade, since she first interviewed with the firm. Although we never worked on a case together, we connect and talk regularly, including at Skadden DEI events, over lunch and at dinners with her husband, and recently at her wedding, which I officiated. Despite the firm’s size, close personal connections are the norm, not the exception. They are what make Skadden and its lawyers exceptional.”
– Stephen Robinson / Retired Partner

“Our Asian affinity networks provide a forum for attorneys of Asian descent — across all offices, practice groups and levels of seniority — to connect and discuss our experiences. The people I’ve met have helped me navigate the challenges that come with working at a law firm. I'm thankful that I’ve been able to do the same for Tansy!”
– Do Kim / Partner, Mergers & Acquisitions (Bio)
