Despite many law firms slowing down their hiring after a blistering hot market the past few years, Manning Kass recently welcomed a group of 11 attorneys and six paralegals to its New York office. Kass shed some insight on the thought process behind these decisions.

70% of respondents said "RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION" in answer to my recent poll question:- 🤔Which of the following is the biggest challenge to law firm growth in the medium term❓ 🚏 Stand by for my next poll where I ask you for the reason for that... #lawyerretention #lawfirmgrowth

I was chatting with Jenny Swan Meyer earlier and reminiscing about the heady days of 2021, when all the power was with law firm associates: law firms responded quickly, and often positively, to submissions; associates could make varied requests in offer negotiations; and firms were offering six-figure signing bonuses. Periods like that don't come along often, and we haven't seen the legal market look like that in the last few years. Firms are always hiring, and recently, we've seen even better numbers in places like Firm Prospects, LLC and had even better responses to our candidates. I always tell associates that no one can tell the future, but I'm going to go out on a limb now and say I think law firm hiring, across most practices, will increase over the rest of this year. Associates - it's your time. Want to discuss the market for your particular practice area, class year, and geography? Please be in touch! #lawfirm #lawfirmjobs #lateraljobs #associatejobs #legaljobs
