Morgan Lewis

Our team of more than 2,200 lawyers and specialists provides comprehensive corporate, transactional, litigation, and regulatory services in major industries, including energy, financial services, healthcare, life sciences, retail and ecommerce, sports, technology, and transportation. We focus on both immediate and long-term goals with our clients, helping them address and anticipate challenges across vast and rapidly changing landscapes.

We approach every representation with an equal commitment to first understanding, and then efficiently and effectively advancing, the interests of our clients and arriving at the best results. If a client has a question, we’ll immediately find the person in our global network with the answer. If there’s a shift in the legal landscape, we’re on top of it, and our clients will be too.

Founded in 1873, we stand on the shoulders of nearly 150 years of achievement, but we never rest on our reputation.

Every person at Morgan Lewis is treated with respect, supported with extensive resources and training, and exposed to a broad range of experiences.

We provide law students, practicing lawyers, and legal professionals with abundant opportunities to share their knowledge and passion for the law with clients and colleagues.

We are committed to building a diverse workforce and creating an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive. Our leadership is actively involved in managing our commitment to diversity and inclusion, and fostering a culture that creates opportunities for everyone. We apply this same level of commitment in promoting the well-being of our lawyers and professional staff and in serving our communities.

We join with the voices in our community and across the globe in refusing to sit idle and tolerate racism, oppression, and inequity. As a law firm, we must be aggressive in the fight against racial injustice. We may not have all the answers, but we are unified in our commitment to do more. If not us, then who?

We spend our days representing the kind of clients who expect and demand the best from us. That is why everyone at Morgan Lewis uses their intelligence, legal skills, and training to make a difference—for our clients and for themselves.

We may be a big firm, but our lawyers and staff work in tight-knit teams. We know that fostering an environment where knowledge and innovation are shared and well-being is actively promoted is the only way we can help our clients reach their goals—and it is the only way for us to grow personally and professionally.

We are a culture of collaboration, not competition. We work seamlessly together, across our services and sectors, drawing on our collective breadth, depth, and experience to create powerful solutions for our clients.

A commitment to diversity and inclusion (D&I) is a core value at Morgan Lewis. We are committed to D&I not only because it is the right thing to do, but because it is integral to how we do business. It influences how we service clients, collaborate with colleagues, and recruit prospective Morgan Lewis lawyers and administrative professionals, and how we engage the communities in which we live and practice.

At Morgan Lewis, our D&I program includes four components that impact every aspect of our culture:

- Active leadership involvement
- Targeted recruiting and outreach
- Client and community engagement
- Career development

At Morgan Lewis, our goal is to embed well-being and engagement into the fabric of our culture. We are committed to providing a variety of tools and resources to meet the unique needs of all individuals and empower everyone at our firm to thrive. 

ML Well is a unique, holistic approach to promoting thriving through intellectual, physical, emotional, and occupational well-being coupled with an underlying emphasis on engagement and community. Because there is no one-size-fits-all approach to well-being, ML Well aims to enable our lawyers and professional staff to find what uniquely works best for them as individuals.

Part of the ML Well curriculum includes an online portal featuring cutting-edge research, events, and news related to positive psychology, as well as information on our firm's well-being-related policies and benefits. To ensure relevancy, the structure and content of the portal are customized to target resources and events to each employee based on practice group, department, and office location.

One of the inaugural signatories to the American Bar Association’s Pledge on Lawyer Well-Being, our senior leadership took that pledge seriously with various actions and new initiatives, including by creating ML Well and establishing the new role of Chief Engagement Officer, a novel position within law firms.

ML Well recognizes the unique stressors and challenges that come with working in a law firm setting and takes an empirically based approach that promotes strategies and techniques backed by scientific research. This focus on well-being is not only the right thing for our lawyers and professional staff, it is also central to our ability to provide exceptional client service.
