BACK TO SCHOOL - The pandemic may have shuttered law school campuses, courthouses and law firms offices across the country, but it didn’t stop Big Law from hiring thousands of new associates. Law.com will release its 2021 Go-To Law Schools hiring report—which ranks the 50 law schools that sent the highest percentage of 2020 J.D.s into associate jobs at the nation’s largest 100 law firms—on March 5.
