All professionals of the firm, whether of the technical or of the administrative area, receive our mentoring program in which a more experienced professional of the firm assumes the responsibility of helping the newcomer in matters of personal and professional development during his/her career in the firm.
Periodical meetings are held to exchange experience, receive professional and personal advice, this being an occasion in which the mentor and his/her mentee conduct a 360 degree evaluation of their personal behavior, as well as that of the other members of their team.
A technical education background is one of the pillars of professional development. FI&F knows this and sponsors various courses in the legal and administrative areas so that its members are constantly updating their skills.
Technical meetings are held periodically, and on such occasions our professionals make presentations on various topics to the other lawyers and interns of the firm, where actual cases are discussed and important technical aspects of different areas of law are examined.
In addition to attending classes, our lawyers and interns are encouraged to write technical articles, publications, and also to actively participate in meetings of groups of legal studies, which help maintain our professionals in a continuing process of learning and improvement.
FI&F offers a career plan aiming at the constant improvement and professional growth of its lawyers, interns and administrative staff. Once a year, all professionals are evaluated by the team leaders, and also have the opportunity to assess the performance of their teams so as to be able to develop specific points of their professional education and also help the other members to progress jointly with the team.
With a view to the continuing progress of its members, FI&F offers a development plan for new partners and the possibility of reaching the position of partner to those who stand out because of their professional performance.
