“As I was looking at firms in the area (and contemplating leaving New York City after 10 years!) I wanted to find the right balance of a friendly and collaborative atmosphere with very sophisticated work. Bernstein Shur felt like the most natural fit for me, and I’ve been so pleased that over the course of my first few months here, my work and the overall experience have exceeded my expectations.”

“At Bernstein Shur, we take our work and our clients seriously—but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. That balance is rare. This is a place where you’re allowed to be happy and actually enjoy what you do. Add in the chance to live in Portland… I feel so fortunate to be here.”

“My clients needed a law firm that could handle all of their legal needs, not just some of them. Bernstein Shur has the best collection of talented attorneys who can support the needs of every last legal challenge my clients may face.”
