As part of Womble Bond Dickinson’s continued growth strategy, U.S. CEO Betty Temple plays an integral role in the vetting and integration of lateral candidates within the firm. This was discussed in depth in a recent Legal Speak episode.
An emphasis was placed on the importance of effective onboarding processes for lateral hires, to ensure not only that they have the skillset required for their new role, but also that they align with the firm’s values and strategic goals.
The episode also covered in detail the firm’s approach to mediation and alternate dispute resolution, with Judge Joseph Quinn, a retired New Jersey Superior Court Judge who served for 23 years, highlighted as a key figure. Now heading Ansell.Law’s mediation practice, Judge Quinn brings his vast experience to parties seeking efficient resolution of their disputes.
As Womble Bond Dickinson continues its growth trajectory, the insights shared by Temple provide a valuable look into the firm’s strategic planning and execution, reiterating the importance of careful selection and integration of lateral hires.
