Professional Development
You may think that you learn everything you need to know in law school. You don’t really think that, do you? If so, think again! Obviously, some of your most important legal education will happen on the job. That's why we offer a multi-faceted career and practice development program that blends classroom learning with practical experience.
One of the 10 goals in the Q&B Strategic Plan states:
"We will be an exemplary Firm in terms of training, mentoring, and otherwise helping our professionals become successful in all respects.” Quarles & Brady LLP is committed to training its associates as they progress to partnership. And frankly, if we do say so ourselves, we do a bang-up job of training lawyers.

- Building Client Relationships
- Client Interviewing
- Negotiation Skills
- Brief Writing for Litigators
- Negotiation Skills - Individualized Coaching
