Despite her busy environmental practice, Story devotes a great deal of time to making sure each new lawyer's transition from law school to practice goes smoothly.

"Jane is constantly making sure that attorneys who are less experienced are not only given practical support for success, but also the emotional and mental support that reassures them they can succeed. As the first lawyer in my family, having Jane as a mentor has made the transition to legal practice at a major firm more manageable than I ever thought possible," said associate Eli Jones.

"Jane is the calm within the storm of the first few years of being at a law firm. She is always there to give advice on issues big and small, and always greets your questions with a smile and a comforting tone," according to associate Eleanora Kaloyeropoulou.
