Drew & Napier has always known where our priorities lie in creating our unique identity. While we consistently work hard to provide the best service for our clients, it is equally important to us that our lawyers have a quality lifestyle.

We pride ourselves on being able to offer that something extra which will make all the difference to you as a young lawyer. Whilst our culture is best appreciated through personal experience, here are some quick points:

  • We treat you as an integral part of the firm from day one, as we believe that our trainees are the foundation of our future.
  • Our philosophy is that people cannot be at their best unless they are happy. That is why our working environment is very important to us. We practice an open-door policy. You will find that our lawyers and staff are friendly, approachable and always quick to lend a helping hand.
  • Some law students worry that if they join a big organisation, they will be overlooked in the crowd and not be valued as individuals. This is not so at Drew. We may have grown into a large professional practice but our spirit of teamwork and camaraderie has not been lost.
  • At Drew, we are committed to realising the potential of all our trainees and lawyers.

The Drew culture is not just about work. We believe that it is important to have all-rounded lawyers. This is why Drew & Napier organizes a wide variety of activities and events to help usher this environment of fun. At work and at play, we always strive to be the best.

We also believe in team bonding, and in building strong ties amongst our lawyers and our staff. Here are some events penciled into our events calendar:

  • Overseas Firm Trips. We pack the entire firm off to destinations such as Hong Kong, Bangkok and Phuket. We bring them on tour packages, to glamorous dinners and crazy parties where everyone from directors to trainees, boogie to the sun rises.
  • Chilling Out. There is always a good reason for us to hold a bash. Every year, a large party is thrown for the trainees to mark the end of their practice training period. Some of the other events we have organised include a FIFA Xbox competition and a mid-year party at the Fullerton Waterfront.
  • Sports events and activities. Our competitive edge and team spirit is not limited to law. We take this on the soccer fields, golf lawns, cross-country tracks and even the beach. We even have a group of dedicated joggers who cover the Shenton Way routes weekly. For those who prefer something more low-impact, kick boxing and stretch & tone classes are also available.
  • Charity. As a firm, we strongly believe that we are in a position to make a difference to those whose needs matter more. Apart from pro-bono work, we have a Charities Committee headed by a director. We have organized numerous events throughout the last few years, including the Annual Children's Christmas Party and the Children's Outing to Labrador Park.
