FLORIDA OPPORTUNITIES
Florida continues to be fueled by population growth. Law firms and corporations
(for in-house counsel) need and value truly talented, outstanding candidates
as they diversify and adapt to our unique area. Economic recovery is encouraging
with the Latin and South America markets. The demand for qualified, skilled
legal professionals with specialized knowledge continues to be in high
demand. Florida's metropolitan areas remain strong particularly in comparison
to national markets. The corporate area is active as there is a dearth
of qualified corporate candidates with mid-level experience. Litigation
is always strong in the Florida area and bankruptcy is beginning to become
more active as a result of the economic climate.
ASSOCIATE POSITIONS
As Florida continues to grow, the need for qualified junior to mid-level
associates is also on the rise. Well credentialed associates with two
to seven years experience in corporate and litigation are of particular
interest to most firms. As the Scripps Research Institute develops in
Florida as expected, intellectual property associates will be heavily
pursued. Labor & Employment, Construction Litigation as well as Tax and
Trust & Estates are also areas that have seen substantial growth over
the last few years.
POSITIONS FOR PARTNERS,
PRACTICE GROUPS AND MERGERS
In order for firms to continue their stability, there is even a greater
necessity to add partners with a minimum of $300,000 to $400,000 in business.
Most firms have an ongoing desire to acquire partners with portable business
and also practice groups. Firms face the need to continue to expand their
practice areas as well as replace partners lost to competition and retirement.
The caliber and expertise of its partners is of the utmost consideration.
IN-HOUSE POSITIONS
There are opportunities available especially due to the technology revolution
and the expanding corporate market. As Florida's diversified economy strengthens,
corporations appreciate the value of in-house attorneys versus the huge
expense and time required hiring outside counsel.
