Milbank partner forms his own firm to "connect more closely" with clients

By Richard Binder

Gregory Evans has left Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy, where he was a litigation partner, to form his own firm, Integer Law Corporation.  It's a move he'd been considering since the economic downturn.

He says, "I want to, in this model, connect more closely with my clients and avoid the unbearable tension at times between a big firm profit model and the needs of businesses that are suffering through difficult economic times, whose legal affairs must be managed effectively and efficiently."

At his new Integer Law Corp., located in downtown Los Angeles, Evans will focus on high-stakes litigation. He is willing to get paid in ways other than ordinary billable hours, including on contingency or partial contingency, reduced billing rates or performance-based bonuses, he said.
