👓 2-Month Lookback on the NJ Attorney Hiring Market: (4/24-5/24) They say April showers bring May flowers, but in actuality both months brought ALOT of Litigators new opportunities. Here are 5 key takeaways: ⤵ 📊 The Top 5: A staggering 84% of all Attorney Hires occurred in 5x categorical "practices" in Litigation (47%); L&E (13%); Insurance (12%); T&E (6%); Corporate (6%). In essence, for every 5 openings encountered, at least 4 will be within these areas. 👑 Long Live the King: With an asterisk, Litigation retains its unflinching hold on the crown of market dominance at 47% of all hires. Of course, this is thanks to the wide variety of areas that comprise this bucket, from General Liability and MedMal, to Commercial and White Collar, to Construction and Land Use, and beyond. Opportunities abound, either in your discrete practice area(s) or if looking to pivot into a new litigation field. 🚀 Prepare for Takeoff: Two areas rapidly ascended in demand: Insurance (50% increase to 12% overall) and T&E (100% increase to 6% overall) compared to 2/2024-3/2024. Notably, Insurance is booming, and our desks reflect that as we're covering opportunities in General Liability, Trucking / Automotive, Asbestos, and other Insurance Defense spaces, as well as sophisticated Insurance Coverage openings. Plus, the Insurance field fosters highly-transferrable (and desired) skills, allowing seamless pivots from one Insurance practice to another. 🔥 The Barnburner: L&E continues to cement itself as the 2024 dark horse, emerging from 2023 to sit pretty at No.2 in market demand all year long. L&E opportunities are diverse, both in practice and setting, as traditional L&E Lit and Counsel is being witnessed alongside specialized ERISA and Exec Comp practices at boutiques, midsize firms, and AmLaw outfits alike- with competitive compensation to match. ⏰ No Snoozing Here: As expected, Corporate Practice has awoken from its year-end 2023 slumber with a steady, predictable increase in openings. Now is an excellent time to consider a lateral in Corporate as firms (both AmLaw and otherwise) are hiring en masse while the candidate pool tends to be a bit shallower during the summer months. (maybe because everyone is too busy soaking up sun at the regular pool?) Interested in making a move? Looking to dive into the unposted job market? Just want to chat about the market? Let's connect!

In light of a recent incident where a senior relationship manager faced harassment and wrongful termination by her branch manager, it's crucial to shed light on the importance of a Directors and Officers (D&O) Liability Insurance policy. D&O Liability Insurance is designed to protect company leaders from personal losses if they are sued as a result of serving as a director or an officer of a business or other type of organization. This insurance can cover legal fees, settlements, and other costs associated with defending against allegations of wrongful acts, such as harassment or wrongful termination. Such policies not only safeguard the personal assets of directors and officers but also ensure that the company can handle claims against its leadership without crippling financial repercussions. In today's corporate environment, where accountability and ethical conduct are paramount, having a robust D&O policy is not just a necessity but a responsibility. Let's ensure that our workplaces remain safe and that our leaders are held accountable for their actions. #DirectorsAndOfficersInsurance #WorkplaceSafety #CorporateResponsibility #EthicalLeadership #InsuranceMatters #ProtectYourTeam #Accountability #RiskManagement
