A Message From the Editor

Succession planning is an increasingly important topic these days, and in our first item today we give you a in-depth conversation with a former Reed Smith lawyer about what it takes to wind down a robust law practice. Reporter Amanda O'Brien talks with Douglas Wood, a retired media and advertising partner, about his new book “From Dawn to Dusk" and what the end of the career path looks like. Also, we have a look at the shifting financial arrangements firms are entering into when it comes to luring lateral talent.

Thanks for reading!

– Max Mitchell, Regional Managing Editor
