companies often require global solutions, but they also need local delivery. Today, about 600 HOK professionals – more than one-third of our staff – reside in offices outside the U.S. We shape our international offices into local practices, staffed and led by professionals who speak the native language and who share the culture and customs. Adding to our strength, we also seek the best local design firms for strategic alliances or partnerships. The combination of local expertise and broad geographic reach is backed by our experience with best practices in corporate design. Our expansion has made it possible for us to build a portfolio of successful engagements with a wealth of multi-regional and multinational corporations. In fact, HOK’s processes for managing the portfolio-level requirements of large corporations across multiple geographies has become a key differentiator for our firm and an important value-add for our clients.

what other law firms have done. Benchmarks (such as RSF per attorney) are firm-specific, static data that becomes stale almost as soon as it is calculated.
This data is equivalent
to sound bites that don’t communicate the effectiveness of the work environment in supporting another firm’s practice. That is, space-related metrics generally report how a space was designed, not how it actually performs.
From firm to firm, the same

most effective in yielding a law office that will remain relevant for a new lease term, adapting to new technology, future generations of lawyers, and competitive legal practice?

WHAT WE ARE
HEARING
Excerpts from the Yale student responses to HOK’s Law Student Survey
“Most lawyers should be allowed to telecommute from home most days of the week. It is environmentally wasteful to continue to require them to commute 5 days a week on overcrowded roads. Law firms need to think outside the box on how to use the internet to lower the need for gasoline.”
“Sustainability is very important to me, and I expect law firms to have a plan to conserve energy and lower their carbon footprint – if only because it tells me that this is a law firm that is conservative and not wasteful with their money.”
“Natural light, a window, independent office spaces with an open door policy . . . these are all necessities. In fact, it would be best if everyone kept their doors either completely or halfway open. Closed doors give off a vibe of isolation and reclusiveness.”
