PARAGON typically has several practices throughout the state (and especially in the major metro areas) seeking to add an equity associate. Equity associateships lead to either practice co-ownership or practice full ownership and contractually allow "sweat-equity" to the associate during the pre-acquisition associate period. Acquisition timing and terms are always clearly defined before the associateship relationship begins to eliminate any chance for misunderstanding.
