The firm would charge significantly less than the $500 or more hourly rate common at many of Atlanta’s top firms. It would emphasize efficiency and control by embracing alternative fee arrangements and maintaining a relatively small number of associates. And its lawyers would forgo the obsession with profits-per-partner and instead focus on how to bring value to clients.
