Choate, Hall & Stewart LLP

We intentionally built Choate to be different from the firms with which we compete.

Our differences materially benefit our clients and the best and brightest talent who join us. We stand out in a legal marketplace which is crowded, intensely competitive and populated by firms which increasingly look, act and think alike. Our unique model leads to a special client experience.

Everything we do at Choate is centered on two fundamental business objectives and core values: helping our clients succeed in their businesses and delivering a unique and uniformly superior client experience. Our clients are market-leaders themselves and entrust us with their most important projects. We view the representation of our clients as a privilege, which we have to earn every day and in every interaction. Many of our clients have been with us for more than 25 years; many are new each year and come to us in large part based on the experience of existing clients. That experience includes the service, results, excellence and value we provide to, and the strength of the relationships we earn with, our clients.
