FLORIDA OPPORTUNITIES
Florida continues to be fueled by population growth and strong, positive
economic prosperity. 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
overseas markets in Latin and South America. 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. Real estate is especially active with
the desirability of Florida as a great place to live and work and with
the influx of Europeans and South Americans. Corporate activity has become active as the economy continues to expand with merges and acquisitions which has a need for qualified corporate associates.
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, real estate 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, Land Use & Zoning 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 $200,000 to $300,000 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 real estate 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.
