Levin was elected to the position in 1997 and has spent 17 years at the top of the firm. He has been re-elected to six, three-year terms, with the most recent coming in December of 2012. The firm has 522 lawyers across 12 offices in the United States.

Levin’s professional experience has only been with this firm, starting in 1982 as an associate at what was then Barnes, Hickam, Pantzer & Boyd.

“We’ve certainly had discussions with other firms, but nothing that ever got too serious,†Levin said. “You always have to listen, but we pride ourselves on our democratic nature. We’re not going to do something like that unless an overwhelming majority of our partners support it.â€

Levin said that the firm is still focused on expanding its reach in Columbus, Atlanta and Los Angeles. These cities have seen the firm open offices in the past couple of years. The Los Angeles office had just six lawyers in 2011. It now boasts 30 lawyers.



“Now more than half of our lawyers have come from outside the firm,†Levin says. “So of course our culture has evolved. And when you’re recruiting others, you also have to remember to tend to your own house so your people believe they’re being treated in a fair manner.â€
