Working at BB&K

Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work

Why come to Best Best & Krieger? Because we think this firm in these locations offers a unique blend of exciting practice and sophisticated clientele with the atmosphere and advancement opportunities of a small firm. We are large enough to handle a broad and complex practice, yet small enough to afford our lawyers exceptional professional opportunities. We have been told by prospective employees, including 19 attorneys who joined the firm in 2010 from Sacramento's McDonough Holland & Allen, that one of the most impressive traits of our firm is the congenial working atmosphere fostered by partners and associates alike. This is confirmed by students' responses to our regular surveys:

"I came to the firm because of the practice areas, but I accepted the offer because of the people I met and the atmosphere when I visited the firm."

"I think BB&K's informal firm atmosphere led me most to accept its offer... BB&K was my first choice overall." 

"People are much more down-to-earth at BB&K. Just an overall good feeling there. Also, I liked not living in the city."

"All of the tangible things are great like the location, the size of the firm, the facilities... but for me it was the people. All things being equal, the bottom line question is who would you rather spend your time with and for me it was the people I met during my visit." 

Our California office locations continue to be some of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in the United States. As one of the state's 50 largest law firms, Best Best & Krieger has positioned itself to take full advantage of new opportunities. In the past year, BB&K has been recognized in a number of leading legal industry publications:   

> Ranking #226 in The National Law Journal’s annual NLJ 250

> Ranking #19 among law firms nationwide in The American Lawyer magazine's 2010 Diversity Scorecard

> Ranking #32 in California Lawyer’s California Top 50 Law Firms

Joining Best Best & Krieger has been a most rewarding decision in both my career and personal life. BB&K has afforded me litigation experience and responsibilities that I would not have found with any other firm, and the BB&K culture is flexible enough to provide time for personal activities and relationships. It is always a pleasure working with my colleagues and the wonderful administrative and support staff no matter how tough the task may be.

I initially applied to BB&K because I was interested in its well-established and diverse environment and public law practice. During my interview, I was impressed by the professionalism and collegial atmosphere among the attorneys and staff. My initial impressions turned out to be true. After more than a year at the firm, I can truly say that BB&K is a great place to work.
