Talented professionals find a real home here — current administrative team members have an average tenure of more than 10 years with the firm, largely because of the many opportunities for professional success and growth. Professional staff are invited to participate in the committees that drive action and policy at Davis+Gilbert, such as corporate social responsibility, diversity, wellness and IT. They take part in many different volunteer opportunities together, serving the community and raising funds for local charities. Staff are also invited to lunch + learns on issues of firmwide importance, including sexual orientation, gender identity, social justice, Black history, and other inclusive and evolving topics.
“At Davis+Gilbert, I’ve been encouraged to take on responsibilities that expand my skill set and create more engagement. There is a noticeable effort to cultivate collaboration and team effort between attorneys and staff. I feel that I work with the attorneys I support rather than just for them.”
— Sarah Dornblaser, Administrative Assistant
