A Smarter Cost Structure for Junior Legal Talent
Starting associate salaries have risen sharply, while client pressure on billing rates has not let up; some companies are refusing to pay for first-year legal work altogether. The result is a pricing gap that is difficult to close with traditional hiring models.
Legal Innovators offers a different approach. We price our placements to reduce what firms pay for junior talent, without reducing the quality of that talent. Firms can pass those savings to clients through more competitive rates, or retain them to improve profitability.
Our model also reduces the cost of a bad hire. Firms evaluate attorneys on a structured trial basis before making a permanent commitment, which means every conversion is a confident one.
