New Attorneys

Profile

Lavelle Law, Ltd. seeks new associates among top law students who demonstrate that, in addition to excellent legal skills, they possess ambition, imagination, superior intellect, personality and professional integrity. We hire candidates whom we believe will be outstanding attorneys, enjoy successful careers, and become invaluable members in our law firm. Our recruiting effort is extensive. The Recruiting Committee interviews highly qualified second- and third-year students at top law schools throughout Illinois and across the country. We encourage law students, judicial law clerks and lawyers who have already begun their careers elsewhere to apply as well. We also welcome the opportunity to speak with students who choose a judicial clerkship or public interest opportunity before entering private practice, or who are undecided on the direction of their legal careers.

“Being part of the dynamic team of attorneys at Lavelle Law has been a truly rewarding experience. It is wonderful to work within a firm that has a demonstrated dedication to producing high-quality representation and value for the client, as well as a strong commitment to giving back to the community. The attorneys within the firm are truly experts within their field, and they each contribute to a collaborative, collegial, and entrepreneurial work environment ripe for professional growth. I can think of no better firm in which I can develop to my full potential as a skilled advocate for my clients.”

Law Students

Lavelle Law, Ltd. provides law students with the opportunity to experience the practice of law at our firm through our law clerk program. Our firm actively participates in on-campus interviews and “meet and greet” functions at area law schools. In selecting candidates for the program, we consider a balance of academic success, strong interpersonal skills, and our firm’s present hiring needs. The Lavelle Law, Ltd. law clerk program reflects the firm’s commitment to legal education and professional development. The program provides participants with the opportunity to experience the varied and dynamic practice of law and continued legal training, while experiencing the highest standards of quality in the practice of law at Lavelle Law, Ltd.

Our success is a reflection of Lavelle Law, Ltd.’s commitment of senior leadership to continue the pipeline of exceptional talent, the dedication of our recruiting committees and the commitment of all of our attorneys who provide law clerks with meaningful work opportunities, along with significant professional and social interaction. Our mentoring program provides a rewarding and realistic introduction into the practice of law at Lavelle Law, Ltd. and our culture of learning.

Our law clerk program is an invaluable window into our practice and firm culture. We provide our law clerks with something priceless: hands-on experience. As a law clerk, you will be assigned to select projects under the close supervision of our experienced attorneys. Your assigned projects will consist of substantive legal work, and may include: drafting briefs, memoranda and contracts, and may even include participating in client consultations and meetings, or accompanying a litigation attorney to court for hearings and trials. Such direct participation enables you to observe the way Lavelle Law Ltd.’s attorneys advocate on behalf of our clients in an effort to solve problems and create opportunities for our clients. In furtherance of our “open-door policy,” we encourage all our attorneys to give law clerks as much training and constructive feedback as possible. As a result, we are provided the opportunity to measure how likely a law clerk is to succeed in our firm’s environment.

“Lavelle Law’s clerking program gave me the opportunity to work on substantive projects under the guidance of senior attorneys, all while helping me decide which area of law I wanted to focus on through

the firm’s breadth of practice groups.”

Nicholas Dollenmaier

“Lavelle Law is the perfect firm for any aspiring attorney looking to gain real-world experience while having the support and guidance of exceptional mentors. From my first interviews as a student, through my time here as a law clerk, to working as an associate attorney, Lavelle has provided a uniquely optimal opportunity to start my career. The firm offers the variety of practice areas and expertise of a big law firm, yet the culture and work-life balance of a smaller firm where everyone knows your name. I would highly recommend Lavelle to anyone.”

Clay Dant

“Lavelle Law’s Summer Associate Program provided me with the perfect opportunity to further develop the legal skills required to become a successful practitioner. The firm works hard at assigning you to the type of work you’re interested in while also challenging you to explore unfamiliar areas of the law.

I received mentorship and feedback from staff, attorneys, and shareholders. Everyone has an open door policy, which helps Summer Associates calm down and focus on producing the best product possible for clients. You are immediately put in a position to do the expected work of a first-year attorney. That type of responsibility helps build confidence that you can succeed as an attorney.”
