In the final part of our #DestinationBakerMcKenzie series, Partners John McKenzie and Alexandra R. T. Daniels, Esq. share a taxi ride around Chicago, where Baker McKenzie's story first began. Alexandra shares her perspective on how the firm has created space for people who might otherwise have felt excluded from the legal industry – while John reflects that this is precisely the legacy that his father and Russell Baker set out to achieve. From London to Buenos Aires and Hong Kong, our #DestinationBakerMcKenzie series has taken us around the world to celebrate 75 years of the firm. Missed a stop?
