"Everybody says, 'Thank God you're doing that,'" Jonathan Hayden, head of Heller Ehrman's San Francisco office, says with a laugh. But if gratitude is measured in dollars, managing partners are taken for granted; only 22 percent of those surveyed said they're earning more than before they began their new roles.

After Nixon Peabody announced on Tuesday that it would re-defer two-thirds of its deferred first-year associates until January 2010, The Am Law Daily decided to check in with 42 other firms slated to start new lawyers soon to see if they'd made any last-minute scheduling changes.

Calif. Still a Challenge for National Law Firms Seeking Lobbying Revenue

As the world's fifth-largest economy, California should be a hotbed of lobbyist activity. But if the dearth of national and international law firms in the state's capital is any indication, Sacramento has yet to prove itself a mother lode.
