How does a 300-attorney, multi-state law firm maintain a truly local presence?
In this full episode of the Matt Goodwin Podcast, Matt sits down with Andy Reiss, Senior Counsel at Bond Shonikin King (BSK), to explore how large law firms can successfully blend national reach with local community connection.
Andy shares insights into BSK’s long-standing presence in Southwest Florida, how multi-office collaboration works in practice, and why bar association involvement and collegiality remain essential in modern legal careers.
This conversation dives deep into:

→ Why community involvement and bar associations still matter
→ How AI is transforming collaboration, research, and e-discovery
→ The risks of AI hallucinations and why cautious adoption matters
→ Differences between practicing law in Naples vs. New York
→ How mentorship and firm culture shape young attorneys
