Are small law firms generally looking to hire law school grads or is this not the case?
Q. I know it sounds like an odd question, but I sort of wanted to work in a certain town when I graduate law school. The town has about 40,000 people and many lawyers (of course). I really don't want to work in a big firm. My question is: If I make "good" grades in law school will smaller sized firms generally be willing to hire me; or does the time just have to be right for them?

A. Small firms hire new law graduates all the time. Most small firms do not participate in the on-campus recruiting process so you may need to be more proactive about locating and applying to small firms. Keep in mind that small law firms generally have smaller hiring budgets than the big firms and pay lower salaries. On the positive side, competition for these positions is not as great as competition for big firm jobs that offer top salaries. Earning top grades will increase your appeal to small firms. I would also advise getting hands-on experience during law school since small firms often seek new grads who can hit the ground running.

What are the top five IP law firms in the Seattle area to work as a biotech patent agent?

I am currently working as an IP legal assistant for attorneys for a large Boston law firm and thus am quite familiar with patent prosecution.

Why do companies have legal departments when they refer cases to outside law firms?
Q. Why do companies have legal departments when they refer cases to outside law firms? Why hire lawyers and paralegals and secretaries? When the litigation is outsourced? For instance, the big insurance companies have legal departments with lawyers, paralegals, and legal secretaries...but also local attorney networks across the country. Why?
Asked by klav - Mon Mar 8 15:55:38 2010 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Because there's a LOT more to the practice of law than just litigation. In-house attorneys generally focus on more "business oriented" matters like contract negotiation and drafting, wage laws, HR issues, real property issues, etc. They tend to farm out the litigation work because its easier and more effective to let lawyers who specialize in that type of work handle it.

Documents need to be looked at, meetings need to be had, and the attorney aiding to broker the deal will need to be present for any and all negotiations taking place. There is only so much an attorney can do via conference call, email and fax.

Is there really a lot of sexual harassment going on in law firms?
Q. I had a job interview today in a law firm and the interviewer asked me how I felt about sexual harassment in the work place. She told me that although she felt it was abominable, the sexual harassment among lawyers and in law firms and court rooms was rampant. Is it really that bad? After watching shows like Boston Legal and hearing that from the interviewer, I'm worried about what I will have to go through as a legal secretary.

A. Like any business, it happens. I have not found it to be a problem but I worked inva generally male field before I went into law. More of a problem is that law firms tend to treat employees badly. Lawyers tend to be infantile, potty-mouthed, stressed and tired. It can be pretty grim but it usually pays well.
