For the attorneys listed here, inclusion in the Law Journal’s Associates Class of 2019 yearbook might represent a new career as a freshly minted lawyer, or a new beginning following a move from one law firm to another. Whatever the reason, we know it’s meaningful for all of them to be doing the work they do. With more than 230 associates listed, these short biographies don’t do their stories justice. Certainly all have worked hard to arrive here. But for each, much of the story is left to tell. We know that we at the Law Journal might be reporting on the work that these associates do—in court, in deal-making, in policy-making, in pro bono and community endeavors, and more—for years to come. We wish them luck and hope that their hard work will be rewarded, and that the legal profession and industry will benefit, too. Congratulations to all, and cheers to new beginnings.
