Congratulations Big Law partners, counsels, associates and support staff: You did it again. As they return for their final year of law school, this year's summer associates are brimming with optimism about their future careers at your law firms, which 73% of associates expect to have. You convinced 7 out of 8 summers to say they'd accept an offer from your firm due to your lavish associate retreats, meaningful mentorship, interesting legal work, engaging senior partners and disarming culture.
