Adam Doerr Discusses Specialization Trend in NCLW

A recent North Carolina Lawyers Weekly article delved into the question of whether it is prudent for young lawyers and law students to specialize their practice. As co-chair of Robinson Bradshaw's Recruiting Committee, attorney Adam Doerr shared his thoughts.

"Specializations are more or less in demand at different times," Doerr said. "If you pick a good specialization early, it can be very valuable, but if you choose to specialize and the economy changes, it can put you in a tough position."

For that reason, Doerr emphasized the importance of fostering "skills that will serve you well even if the market changes."
