More Law Professors Consult at Firms

Harvard Law School professor Laurence Tribe is one of several high-profile legal scholars who have taken outside jobs with law firms. "It's a useful umbrella for some of the work I want to do," he says. The positions provide professors with some cash as well as provide cachet to law firms, which can tout the scholar's expertise as a mark of distinction. But law schools want to make sure they're getting their money's worth from faculty members. And too much faculty consulting can raise red flags for the ABA.

When Tate moved to Dechert from Schnader Harrison Segal & Lewis in 1991, he was moving from one top-five Philadelphia firm to another. As it turned out, he was also moving from the firm that dropped the most ranks by size in the past quarter-century to the one that gained the most ranks in profits per partner among firms on the original Am Law 100 list (for fiscal 1986).
