Culture

How does RSHC make a winning difference and deliver maximum value for our clients?

We are dedicated to an inclusive culture. Diversity and inclusion are cornerstones of our law firm. The varied backgrounds and identities of our attorneys is a fact so self-evident we don’t talk about it much; it’s just who we all are. From Managing Partner and co-founder Patricia Brown Holmes, the first African-American woman to lead a major national law firm, to our most junior lawyers, our teams are comprised of talented attorneys who reflect the vitality and diversity of the world in which we live and work, and the multinational clients we serve.

We are committed to professional excellence in everything we do. We are proud of our track record of delivering exceptional results to our clients. Our partners are acknowledged leaders in their respective fields and are committed to training the next generation of leaders. Our diversity contributes to the excellence of our client service and the vibrancy of our workplace.  

We work in small, efficient teams. We staff our teams from an extraordinarily deep bench of talent who have apprenticed with top lawyers or judges since the beginning of their careers. Our teams are lean, deeply talented, efficient, and — as anyone who has faced off against them will tell you — powerfully effective. 

We value relationships. We have shared values and a shared desire to serve clients with the highest possible standards of work quality and responsiveness. Our spirit of collegiality shapes our firm culture, and we genuinely enjoy collaborating and working with one another. Our attitude carries over into our relationships with clients – we enjoy working with our clients and we are genuinely proud and grateful to be able to serve them.

We love what we do. Finding creative solutions to complex legal problems, outmaneuvering our opponents, and going the extra mile to tirelessly aid our clients is what motivates us. It is what gets us up in the morning and keeps us working late into the night. We are proud to serve our varied clients, from the most sophisticated global corporations to the newest start-ups, from the highest-powered executives to the most under-resourced defendants, because we love the practice of law.
