The Best and the Worst
This week, the firm coming in at the very bottom of Judged's law firm survey is Proskauer Rose with a score of 1.38 out of 10. Topping the list is Nutter McLellan & Fish with 9.21 out of 10.



Nutter is a large regional firm in Massachusetts. Proskauer is a gigantic international firm with offices from New York to Paris. The disparity in the lifestyles of their attorneys may account for the differences in the scores they received in our survey.





Nutter attorneys claimed the firm was pretty laid back, though there was some grumbling that it's not as laid back as it used to be and that the partners can be too demanding. The attorneys at Proskauer were more resolute in their claims that the partners overwork them. In addition to an arduous work schedule, Proskauer attorneys also cited the slow partnership track, lack of training after the first year and a high turnover rate as strong negatives.



Oh, and I also learned a bit of trivia. Nutter was co-founded by Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis. I didn't know that before.
