The legal sector added jobs for the second straight month as 600 people joined the industry’s work force in October, according to preliminary data released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The Nov. 2 report also revised the agency’s original estimate for the number of jobs gained by the legal sector in September upward from 1,000 to 1,300, as well as its August figures to reflect a loss of 1,100, rather than 1,400, jobs.
