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.) In the final category are firms that appear on our most recent Am Law 100 (May) or Global 100 (October 2007) survey. For a full methodology, click here.

The Mass Tort Bonanza That Wasn't

PPA, an ingredient in cold medicine alleged to cause strokes, looked like a mass tort bonanza for plaintiffs lawyers. But it wasn't. Though there are still a few plaintiffs firms with significant PPA caseloads, many others are closing down their PPA dockets, settling the cases for what they can and dismissing the rest. Why the PPA mass tort bust? Defendant drug companies dug in, defying conventional wisdom about the dangerous corporate implications of litigation uncertainty.

Fen-Phen Trials May Test New Damages System

If the 53,000 fen-phen users who opted out of the national settlement agreement with Wyeth Corp. were expecting a simple negotiation to net a larger check, they were wrong. After a string of headline-grabbing losses, the drug company's lawyers have been quietly collecting verdicts of their own.
