I worked with Baker & Hostetler for many years as an associate attorney in both its Washington D.C. and New York City office - I found them to be very professional, collaborative, respectful of my time, understanding of complex issues and able to work effectively across cultures. They have always been great partners. The firm has now become much larger and it is not as easy to collaborate with colleagues in other offices or at home when you need to discuss matters or seek advice from others within B&H. There are some things we can't do together anymore because they moved into new offices too far away geographically. It would've been nice if they had maintained a strong presence in NYC.
