In the wake of a busy late spring for lateral announcements, it appears that May and June movement may be the new normal, as more firms find ways to keep partners from leaving.Several recruiters who work in Pennsylvania said the late spring has become a busy time. In particular, two Pittsburgh-area recruiters said there has been a noticeable increase in lateral movement in May and June.

The activity has been spread across firms of different sizes and practice areas. Saxton & Stump, for instance, brought on Stacey Meadows, former general counsel for Thomas Jefferson University Health System. Plaintiffs firm Kline & Specter brought on Nadeem Bezar and Emily Marks from Kolsby, Gordon, Robin, Shore & Bezar, and intellectual property boutique Panitch Schwarze hired Bryon T. Wasserman from Mayer Brown in Washington, D.C., and Ronald J. Ventola II from Schnader Harrison Segal & Lewis. In the same week as all of those moves, corporate law partner Ronald Frank joined Blank Rome after 16 years at Reed Smith.
