Allen Matkins

Allen Matkins is a mid-sized AmLaw 200 law firm with approximately 225 attorneys serving clients across the United States. We have worked with clients drawn to us by our reputation for market-leading solutions, pragmatism, exemplary quality, approachability, and our unparalleled network of contacts and connections in business and government.

Founded with deep roots in real estate, the firm has leveraged that foundation to grow and build prominent litigation, corporate, tax, labor and employment, land use, and environmental practices, which allow us to partner with clients across myriad industries and markets.

From our base in California, we offer clients holistic legal solutions with the global reach of a large firm, combined with the lean efficiency of a smaller team. We hire the best legal talent, cultivate and shape our people, and work together to create value not only for our firm, but for the collective success of our clients.

WHY JOIN ALLEN MATKINS?

Allen Matkins has grown and flourished over the years by attracting lateral associates and partners who are interested in and committed to our collaborative work environment. We are always looking for talented and ambitious professionals to be part of a focused, creative, and entrepreneurial team committed to great client service, innovation, collaboration, balance and diversity.

We believe in growing the professional capabilities of our team members and invest in our associates by providing them with extensive training and mentoring, fostering professional development, and rewarding growth opportunities. We provide associates with the opportunity and support necessary to do great work for clients and be successful.

We support the entrepreneurial spirit. We support the creativity and interests of our attorneys by providing an entrepreneurial platform for the growth of their practices consistent with our strategic initiatives.

We’re team-oriented. We accomplish more as a team and as a firm, and not as individual practitioners. We use the words “teamwork” and “camaraderie” daily, and behave accordingly. We label it the “Get-Along Factor” and it’s important to our success.

We’re smart about our business. We never lose sight of the fact that the firm is a business enterprise, and strive to be successful and profitable. We stress the fundamentals in operating our business and are well, but not overly, managed.

We’re partners with our clients. We develop longstanding relationships with clients, provide exemplary and exceptional service, learn their businesses and objectives thoroughly, and team with them to solve problems.

We’re innovative and solutions-driven. Business changes, our clients’ needs change, and the law changes. We’re continually seeking innovative ways of furthering client business objectives and giving attorneys the room to create new solutions to client challenges.

We believe in balance. While we believe in providing clients with exemplary work, we don’t encourage working extraordinary hours for their own sake. We promote balance between work and family and/or other interests. We coach and play on teams, give back to our cities, communities and neighborhoods, and get involved in a broad range of activities. It’s good for us, good for the firm, and good for our communities.
