Careers
OUR CULTURE
Our approach also dictates our culture as a firm. We provide our clients with the same level of experience and capabilities as a large firm but with the personal service and attention that is usually found only in boutique firms. We employ that same strategy in the career development of our attorneys and staff at every level. Our firm is committed to four non-negotiable cultural practices: Quality Work, Collegiality, Respect, and Courageous Professionalism.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
At Englander Fischer, we continuously strive to be disciplined in our hiring practices. We make every effort to recruit the very best talent while never sacrificing our values, which are shared by both our employees and long-term clients. We hire people, not credentials. We hire people who believe what we believe and want to share a collegial, service-oriented, fun work environment that celebrates diversity and mutual success. We share a strong commitment to providing each other with an environment conducive to both high achievement and work-life balance.
OUR VALUES
We seek attorneys who have a passion for the law in general and their preferred practice areas. We don’t pigeonhole attorneys. We encourage generalists, as well as specialists. Our values include the following:
- A passion for the practice of law
- A strong work ethic that your fellow attorneys and clients can rely on
- An unabating respect for colleagues, paralegals and staff regardless of their status or disagreement with you
- An unwavering commitment to follow the ethics of our profession and our collective sense of morality
- A spirit that is able to celebrate victory and always learn from defeat
- The ability to remain nimble; the ability to quickly forge a new path when an older one proves unresponsive
Community Involvement
Since its inception, Englander Fischer has played a leading role in the Tampa Bay community. From participating in community projects and volunteering at local charities to presiding over non-profit organizational boards, the Englander Fischer team takes great pride in helping build our community through professional expertise, leadership and, sometimes, good old-fashioned hard work.
