Associates Survey 2008

Smaller firms often outscore larger ones on our annual survey of midlevel job satisfaction. It may be because a more intimate atmosphere breeds happiness. Maybe it's because associates have more responsibility. Perhaps it's because they have a better chance of making partner. In these charts, firms are grouped roughly according to size. In the first category are firms whose annual gross revenues are too low to qualify for the Am Law 200. These are the smallest firms that took part in our survey. In the second category are Am Law Second Hundred firms?numbers 101-200 on the most recent Am Law 200 survey (July.)

As it happens, in the big-firm world those days aren't gone, they've just moved to the Am Law Second Hundred ranks, where firms are prosperous and growing steadily but retain the possibility of old-fashioned cohesion.

N.J. Law Graduates Shiver Through a Bear Market for Legal Services

The ailing economy is creating tough choices for the class of 2003 at New Jersey law schools. Placement officials say that except for students who had summer internships at large firms, it's as tough a climate as they've seen in recent years. The chief fallback positions are judicial clerkships that will extend job hunts for 12 more months and add meat to r�sum�s -- but competition is heating up for those positions, too.
