Welcome to the 19th installment of PaLaw: Annual Report on the Legal Profession. In these pages, we aim to provide a detailed view of various aspects of the legal profession in Pennsylvania, covering both the public and private sectors, reviewing the shape of things over the past year and what the coming year might hold.

In 2011, we wrote in this space that the legal community appeared to be on its way to recovery. Layoffs and hiring reductions were receding and rate and salary increases were rising. This year wasn’t always an easy one for Pennsylvania firms. As reporter Zack Needles writes in his Firm Financials story on page 100, firms saw profits and revenue stabilize in 2011 after growth in those metrics in 2010.
