Hiring Mistakes are Costly for Law Firms and Lateral Attorneys Alike

Recently, a lateral stayed at a firm for less than 3 months. The damage that cost to the firm, its clients, and the lateral attorney was immense. Now the law firm is embroiled in litigation with the legal search firm. The reputational damage all around is significant. Rushing into hiring decisions is not good practice, from our experience. Go slow to go fast is our motto. Making sure the behavioral fit works takes a step or two. Onboarding is critical for a new hire’s success.

Legal talent must be retained in order for a law firm to succeed.
