Most law firms avoid posting jobs on Indeed or LinkedIn due to high costs. Instead, they publish them on their own websites, bar association pages, and niche legal boards. LawCrossing finds these hidden jobs, giving you access to exclusive opportunities. Sign up now!
Most law firm lawyers are either litigators or transactional lawyers. Litigators do research, write legal briefs, and give advice and legal assistance to companies or individuals. They prosecute or defend litigation. Transactional lawyers work with money, drafting contracts for a business, any financial deals, real estate, and so forth.
Naturally enough, working in a firm means working well with others, being able to be part of a team, and letting the culture determine your place. A firm is a label, has a reputation, and you build a name for yourself not only based on the notoriety of the cases you take, but also on the prestige of your firm. Just as law schools produce students with a given characteristic, so do different firms produce different lawyers.
Joining a firm is almost like joining a family. It can give you stronger security than going solo, ensuring that you have plenty of work and don’t have to promote yourself.
