Which law firms have the happiest Associates? The 2024 list is here. Junior Associates at participating firms responded to a list of 40 questions covering all aspects of firm life. Questions range from their initial perceptions of the firm, to their relationships with the partners and clients, as well as diversity and pro-bono initiatives. Question topics focus around ?job satisfaction, stress and mental health, career development and retention. ?? The Elite: Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP | Clifford Chance | Cooley LLP | Dechert LLP | Duane Morris LLP | Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, LLP | Gibson Dunn | Jackson Walker LLP | McDermott Will & Emery, Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP ?? The Excellent Performers: Alston & Bird | Arnold & Porter | Brown Rudnick LLP | Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP | Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP | Fish & Richardson P.C. | Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer | Fried Frank | Goulston & Storrs, Holwell Shuster & Goldberg LLP | Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP | Jenner & Block | Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP | Wiley | Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati The biggest complaints I continue to hear from Associates are: 1?? Firms must invest in their people and getting the culture right if they want in-office mandates to be met. Associates want a reason to commute (more than just free food or in-person events). The fish rots from the head... 2?? Associates being told they were lucky to have a job at the firm amid layoffs. Firms that showed consistent appreciation towards associates continue to fare well.

The 2024 Diversity Survey, conducted by our friends at?Leopard Solutions, a Surepoint company, in collaboration with ATL, explored the experiences of diverse attorneys at large law firms. More than 600 lawyers shared their insights, and earlier this month, we?highlighted some of the results.? The survey reveals that law firm partnership remains the career objective for most of the lawyers surveyed. A majority of participants (64%) reported that their goal upon entering a top 200 law firm was to make partner. Almost the same number (65%) indicated that their goals remained unchanged after joining the firm.? . . . #diversity #communication #humanresources #diversityinlaw #diversityequityinclusion #womeninlaw #leadership #progress #transparency #accountability #lawfirms #atlantalawyer #legalrecruiting #AtlantaLegalRecruiters #theRMNagency #legalrecruitingfirm #legalrecruiter #legalrecruiters #legalsearch #atlantalegalrecruiters #atlantalawfirms #biglaw #smalllawfirm #inhousecounsel #associate #partner

Big moves in legal! ?? We have seen a number of Partner/team moves around the Magic Circle and US firms lately, so it's great to see an international firm such as DLA Piper join the race. These strategic moves are reshaping the landscape of top-tier legal services. Recently, we witnessed the Sidley team move to Davis Polk, followed by Gibson Dunn expanding their ranks with a key hire from Freshfields. Now, DLA Piper has swooped in to acquire the Dechert team! This dynamic change presents a fantastic opportunity for restructuring associates contemplating their next steps, offering new avenues for career development and progression. #LegalMoves #CareerGrowth #LawFirmUpdates
