Stacey Lee

ASSOCIATE | WITH THE FIRM SINCE 2013 | IN PRACTICE SINCE 2013

IT’S AMAZING THAT I STILL GET TO DO THE STUFF THAT INSPIRED ME TO GO TO LAW SCHOOL. Nobody else is doing what our food and beverage team does. The partners have been great about letting me take the lead on projects and communicate directly with clients. I’ve most enjoyed being able to work with a lot of small companies, since I can really relate to what the owners are going through. I grew up in the food industry with my parents going through a lot of the same struggles. It feels good to be able to help people make their businesses successful.

Alonzo Wickers IV

PARTNER | WITH THE FIRM SINCE 1997 | IN PRACTICE SINCE 1993

IT’S A PRIVILEGE TO WORK WITH ENTERTAINMENT CLIENTS WHO ARE PUSHING THE CREATIVE BOUNDARIES. I never thought I’d work at a law firm for five years, much less 15. But that’s what happens when you have challenging projects, great clients, and really smart, engaging colleagues. The media team here is nationally renowned, and the mentoring and training I’ve received has been invaluable. In my experience, it’s one of the things Davis Wright Tremaine excels at. Now I have the opportunity to do the same for our associates.
