“When other independent firms chose to merge or sell, we prioritized maintaining our autonomy,” says Landry. “By aligning with the right partners, we have preserved our valued client relationships while positioning ourselves for future growth.”
Historically, Perkins-McKenzie’s business has thrived on referrals and word-of-mouth recommendations—a testament to its reputation as a trusted advisor.

“I thrive on challenges and enjoy crafting tailored solutions for our clients,” Mahtook explains. “I’m also proud to uphold the tradition of service and strong relationships that define Perkins-McKenzie.”
