Welcome Winston & Strawn’s U.S.-Based Class of 2024

Last week, Winston & Strawn welcomed and began onboarding 85 members of the U.S.-based Class of 2024.

All 85 newly minted law school grads convened in Chicago for Winston University’s three-day New Associate Orientation Program, which was filled with professional development and networking opportunities. Highlights included:

• A warm welcome to Winston from firm chairman Steve D’Amore
• Advice on launching their careers from Litigation co-chair Linda Coberly and Transactions co-chair Tim Kincaid
• An insightful presentation about the importance of people’s names and pronouncing them correctly from Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer Sylvia James
• A Winston for Good “Putting for Purpose” team activity, which contributed 1,728 food items to The Chicago Help Initiative

We are thrilled to welcome the following new members to the firm:
