Introduction

Robinson Bradshaw is a growing firm of more than 170 attorneys, with four offices operating in and around North Carolina.

Vault Verdict

If a truly hours-blind culture appeals to you and you’re willing to accept a somewhat lower salary in exchange for it, Robinson Bradshaw may be your dream firm. Associates rave about the friendly culture and describe their relationships with partners as excellent, respectful, and transparent. They say the hours-blind ethos of the firm is real, and they universally appreciate it, to the extent that virtually no one complains about receiving a (relatively) lower salary in exchange for it. Work is described as generalist in nature and suited to associate experience levels, and the firm’s technology fully enables remote work and generates no real issues. While the firm has relatively few formal wellness offerings, the genuine commitment to work-life balance overall does more for most ...

Associate Reviews


  • “This firm is made up of smart, funny, and mostly incredibly kind individuals. There are all sorts of relationships within the firm, ranging from best friends to polite colleagues. I socialize with coworkers frequently and spend at least a solid chunk of every in-office day catching up with my fellow attorneys and staff.”
  • “The firm's culture is very collegial. The lawyers often interact socially, and events tend to feel more like gatherings with friends than work events. The lawyers and staff also interact well together.”
  • “The firm culture is built on the idea that lawyers can be friends as well as coworkers. Attorneys regularly eat together at large tables in the office cafe. Most of the attorneys have lifelong friendships with other Robinson Bradshaw attorneys outside the office. Every year the firm has a weekend retreat where the attorneys connect and decompress.”
  • “I absolutely love the firm culture here. The firm routinely emphasizes the importance of personal relationships. My friends here are some of my closest friends and confidants. Attorneys socialize after hours frequently. I've gone on trips with others from the firm, and that is not an uncommon experience.”
