Overview
Ira Coleman as McDermott Chair was featured in an extensive story about his efforts to refocus the firm on a few core areas where he thinks it can excel —including tax, private equity, M&A, private wealth and big ticket litigation – while balancing the focus on profitability with morale-building. Mr. Coleman, whose emails carry the sign-off “Make it a great day!!,” has undertaken major intra-firm communication efforts and other steps with a goal, as he put it, that “it really should mean something to be an equity partner at McDermott.”
