Am Law Article: Law Firm Lateral Hiring Boom Goes On

In an article in today's Am Law Daily, author Victor Li discusses a new report released by the publication along with LexisNexis which projects continued strong lateral hiring by law firms.  A particularly interesting excerpt:

"On the talent front, a whopping 96 percent of survey respondents indicated that their firms plan to hire laterals over the next two years as a means of growing, while nearly three out of four said their firms expect the increase in lateral hiring to extend over the next five years. " 

This is certainly good news for experience attorneys looking to make a move.
