Two years ago, Atlanta-based Taylor English Duma hired its first remote partner, kicking off a strategic expansion plan premised on a new, “hybrid” business model.
By pairing its brick-and-mortar hub in Atlanta with a network of partners working remotely, the firm promised to offer clients a broader, high-caliber bench at a relative discount.

How is it working? According to CEO Kirk Hancock, Taylor English now has 20 remote partners across nine cities and eight states. The most recent addition, litigator Chi-Ru Jou, joined Monday from CKR Law in New York, giving the firm a presence in the Northeast for the first time.
