Willenken LLP
Willenken is an elite minority-owned, majority-women law firm that truly cares about developing and supporting its diverse employees’ careers, professional development, as well as physical and mental health. The firm breaths a positive, collaborative, and entrepreneurial environment and offers competitive salaries, benefits, and perks, as well as a positive work life balance. Lawyers are given the opportunity to gain unparalleled hands-on substantive legal experience in terms of opportunities for trial work, oral argument, and case leadership, as well as fostering client relationships, and actively participating in business development initiatives to gain new skills. Willenken believes in and provides real support to developing lawyers as the means to developing the firm, not the other way around.
On June 2, 2022, the firm celebrated its 20th anniversary in the beautiful Redbird Garden with employees, alumni, clients, and friends by hosting a well-attended cocktail reception, including open bar, hors d’oeuvres, food stations, live music, and a photo booth for the firm’s guests to enjoy. Willenken also hosts quarterly full-firm (staff included) events, such as cooking classes, trivia competitions, bowling, escape rooms, ice cream socials, chocolate tastings, flower arranging classes, magic shows, and holiday lunches. The firm intentionally schedules these events during working hours because it wants employees to enjoy them while not infringing upon family obligations.
