According to the firm site that Bill works for, Womble Carlyle was established in Winston-Salem in 1876, the firm now comprises more than 500 lawyers and 1200 staff in nine offices, including Winston-Salem, Charlotte, Greensboro, Research Triangle Park and Raleigh, NC; and Atlanta; Greenville, SC; and Tysons Corner, Va; and Washington, DC.
For a Big Law firm it seems to focus quite a bit on technology.
Womble Carlyle has invested heavily in technology, considering it to be an essential tool in making our lawyers more productive and in providing added value to clients. Our individual office local area networks are linked through a wide area network operating over T-1 lines. These T-1 lines provide voice, data and video links among all our offices and are an important key to our ability to serve clients from any location within the Firm.
Welcome to the blogosphere, Bill.
