American for a period of six months of the study visit, after two months in American school legal training, we have 16 of the larger firms in Washington practice from mid September, now practice more than in January, on the American Washington firms, particularly the larger firms have made an impression:

   1 attaches great importance to publicity.

   Washington is the political and cultural center of the capital, America, legal service market is huge, firms and lawyers innumerable, specific figures are impossible (like Beijing), so if there is no good publicity, to gain a foothold and development. The larger firm in Washington DC from the following aspects: the purchase of shaping the image of a larger area in the center of the city, beautifully decorated office.
It is necessary for the lawyer facade, there are difficulties, one-time purchase mortgage, lease or purchase is difficult; the whole building, just buy a few layer. In short, the facade is required. In the decoration, not very luxurious, but very beautiful, also embodies the cultural atmosphere, decoration art painting, sculpture and so on are.

   2 foreign firms have websites, a LAN in.

   The Internet has completely changed American life, American mail volume has greatly exceeded the letters and phone calls. Washington's firm built their own website, information firms are on the site, the site at any time to update the website propaganda, as well as the lawyer window. USA relationship between lawyer and client, and the lawyer and attorney general through the mail, so that it is convenient, with respect to the call, and there is evidence to meaning, if there is any dispute related process, stick out a mile. Washington office LAN often use such as: IBM, CISCO and other large companies software, transmission speed is very quick, save the information quantity is big, but its cost is also higher.

   3 does not let off any publicity firm opportunity.

   Even very successful firms also did not miss every opportunity to publicize their: firms have image into the special system (CI), stationery, paper, business cards, pen, glasses, everything we can think of places have firm marker, the main colors, logo, image design is often ask a professional design company to complete the the. Various meetings, academic exchanges, encourage lawyers to take, and publicity firm.

   4 firms have specialized marketing department is responsible for the promotion of.

   Firms are generally 3-5 marketing personnel, these people are not lawyers, but is a marketing master, full-time responsible for promotion. They work to expand the firm effect, expand the influence, it is difficult to get instant results from many source, but the lawyer's long-term development is very favorable.
In short, the lawyer's image is the lifeblood of it.

   5 internal management is very strict.

   Partner lawyer, senior consultant, lawyer, lawyer, lawyer assistant, administrative assistant, logistics personnel to distinguish strictly hierarchical.
Management of lawyers is the highest organ of state power and more partners, partners, so that partners meeting elected several committees, such as: the protection of minorities Commission administrative committee, the Remuneration Committee, the Personnel Committee, female lawyer Protection Committee, therefore, from the aspects of security office operation. The partners' meeting will elect a chairman, to guide the daily management, is the chairman of the rotation system, usually one for three years.

   Senior counsel generally older, is a former senior partner or has made a significant contribution to the firm, no specific requirements on business to them, but to the salary is not low, in some complex cases, their relationship can play a large role.
The recruitment from the American ranked the top thirty law school graduates, no case demands on them, firms will assign the source. Attorney general by 6-10 years can be promoted to partner lawyer, salary will increase by a big margin, at the same time, if the lawyer during his case as, to firm, it will greatly speed up the promotion to partner speed.

   Paralegals (no lawyer license), often from the Career Technical College, LLM, college students recruitment, promotion for the lawyers are also less likely to. Administrative Assistant to older women, working mainly to arrange partner lawyer itinerary and typing, work time is fixed, low wages, no opportunity for promotion. Firm and a certain number of pure support staff, such as library (each have, this is also an image), binding file, courier, work time cleaning and so on, people not in the minority.

   The 6 firms in the strict management system.

   Firms have the management system, the examination and approval system is strictly. Although we are to practice, but America lawyers very seriously, are handled according to formal employment law program: the first is to declare our existing customers, check whether the USA clients of the firm may have a conflict of interest, in addition to the signing of the formal labor contract (as with America Law Division), the contract generally more than 100 pages, very detailed. Thus USA lawyer management system strictly. The various approval on the internet. For example: if an approval from the preparation of the parties entrusted the Institute, the Institute and the lawyers can not immediately signed a contract with the parties, but must be placed in the examination and approval center, do approval if there is a conflict of interest.

   More features in the management system management system is the hour lawyer, America most firms and lawyers fees are paid by the hour, according to the market this year is $200-2000 (according to the degree of attorneys) per hour to charge customers. The larger firm in Washington there is generally a case more less staff, at the same time as the attorney is fixed, so there must be rules effective work every lawyer must hour, this aspect of the system is very strict, and cause the lawyer often work overtime, of course, this ensures that the lawyer can healthy development, not as in the single cost accounting lawyers losses.

   USA superpower only at present, USA lawyers in the world are at the advanced level, it is because of the image outside, internal management, make a great development American lawyers, lawyers China customers around the world to win the trust to be better, also can be taken from the two aspects.
