Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP was recognized among the leading law firms in the 2025 associate satisfaction survey conducted by Chambers Associate. The annual interview-based research invites associates from the nation’s leading law firms to answer questions covering every aspect of law firm life, from their initial views on the firm and its competitors to their relationships with partners and clients, as well as their own career expectations and aspirations.

The firm is recognized as a leading firm in five areas:

Strong performer – Associate Satisfaction

Strong performer – Career Development

Strong performer – Pro Bono

Strong performer – Associate Retention

Endorsed – Quality of Life

The guide’s “inside view” of the firm provides a snapshot of responses from the surveyed associates, painting Hunton as a firm that is “warm and welcoming” while also offering a place to “have challenging work and be challenged intellectually.” One associate affirmed the firm’s culture, stating, “I can do important work, see my family, and be happy!”

Another associate celebrated the balance of autonomy and support when working with the firm’s partners. “The partners are there to review my work if I ask or if it’s particularly complex, but by and large, they give me a lot of room to work and gain experience.” Others praised the atmosphere of the firm, saying they were drawn to “just how social everyone seemed,” and that “they take mentorship really seriously.”
