Law firms nationally and in Washington, D.C., report that they're increasing the number of summer associates this year. Consultants and recruiters say that this year's larger class is due to the country's economic recovery and many firms' increased business, creating a need for more attorneys to handle the larger workload. But many recruiters suggest that this year's class is still smaller than classes from the late '90s.

A general economic recovery and increased legal business have meant more summer associates and higher salaries at law firms nationwide this summer.
According to ALM’s 2005 National Summer Associate Hiring Survey, the average number of summer associates hired by law firms nationwide is up from 2004. (ALM, formerly known as American Lawyer Media, is the parent company of Legal Times.) In addition, summer associates’ average weekly salaries have risen slightly.
