The glitzy work life of a summer associate has dazzled another class of law school students—and few firms proved as dazzling this year as a pair from Pennsylvania.
Summer associates reported an average satisfaction rate of 4.76 on this year's Summer Associates Survey, unchanged from 2018, and no firm had an average score below 4.19. The surveys were gathered from more than 3,600 summer associates at 82 of the world's largest firms. The survey asked respondents to rate their firms based on quality of work, partner and associate interaction and likelihood to accept an offer if extended.
Philadelphia-based Duane Morris was one of only four firms that received perfect 5 marks to share the top spot on the ranking. The other three were Clifford Chance; Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel; and Stroock & Stroock & Lavan. (View the full list at the bottom of this page.)
