We discovered that the secret to Rimon’s success is all down to its innovative business model. imon is a highly selective entrepreneurial firm that combines the dynamic client service, teamwork and agility of a high-end boutique law firm with the deep multidisciplinary experience of a large global firm. Rimon’s clients consistently receive exceptional representation across the firm’s 20 locations, from its all-star team of corporate, litigation, tax, intellectual property, and private client attorneys. Rimon’s attorneys were meticulously drawn from the top ranks of premier law firms, international corporations, and academia. They hold JDs, PhDs, LLMs, and MBAs from the best universities in the United States and abroad. They have worked on multi-billion dollar deals and have argued (and won) in front of the Supreme Court of the United States. Their team approach, experience and education ensure clients receive effective and comprehensive counsel. Since its inception in 2008, Rimon, P.C. has repeatedly been recognised for its innovation and excellence by sources, it has also received international recognition for its spherical organisational structure. It allows for an agile and dynamic team that works closely together to efficiently respond to client needs. Its founders began their careers at a large traditional law firm, at a time when computer technology was developing by leaps and bounds. They saw first-hand that the old law-firm model had serious weaknesses, and the new technology had enormous potential — for disruption, and for improvement. Rimon’s experienced partners form the surface of the sphere, working directly with clients without bureaucratic interference. They are fully supported by a close team of associates, Rimon Network, administrative staff, and management. This model allows for an agile and dynamic team that works closely together to efficiently respond to client needs. This model contrasts with the traditional pyramid structure, and offers the following benefits: No Superiority Attorneys at Rimon do not have to follow the dictates of superiors who may be unfamiliar with their clients. This is a far cry from the traditional pyramid model of hierarchy, and Rimon employees do not have to follow bureaucratic rules. They are able to turn their attention to serving clients instead, by working as equals within the team, supported by other staff, the Rimon Network, and associates. This approach to management fosters teamwork and excellence in order to best serve the firm’s clients. Clients’ interests Attorneys at Rimon are not compensated based on their ranking within Breaking the Mould management. The firm’s structure is instead based purely on work undertaken for its clients. Staff at Rimon are rewarded for bringing in new work and for working as a team, which ensures that Rimon attorneys focus fully on their clients’ needs, negating the need for office politics. Freedom Every client has different needs, one size does not fit all, and Rimon recognises this. Lawyers at the firm have the freedom to determine alternative billing structures and tailored representation for their clients. Consistency By not relying on the traditional pyramid structure of management, the firm’s attorneys are partners with years of experience. The firm’s support team ensures clients don’t pay partner rates for data entry or basic research and, what’s more, it enables Rimon attorneys to keep their focus firmly on clients. Flexability Rimon’s spherical structure and culture actively promotes constant dynamism. Free from the traditional business model that most firms adopt, this freer structure allows new ideas to flow and be implemented. Company: Rimon, P.C. R 1807AI12
