Incoming First Year Proskauer

Post by Anonymous User » Wed Apr 08, 2020 9:01 pm

Can anyone here tell me how Proskauer is faring right now? Specifically the corporate group but also interested in how L&E/firm overall is doing.

I'm a midlevel associate. The firm seems to be doing well. The leadership says that they are confident about the firm's outlook through the downturn, and supposedly the number of hours billed this March was the same as last March. It seems like the L/E group is pretty busy. I don't know about corporate.

Any reason they have totally ghosted their incoming summers? No word on potential offers or pay. No contact whatsoever since early April. The complete radio silence is torturous.

Depends on what office. Their corporate group in LA got raided by K&E last year. Although last I saw they were looking to hire corporate associates in LA (but was pre-COVID).

Second year Proskauer associate in a satellite office here. The firm seems to be doing fine, especially L&E. I think the silence is likely just uncertainty. Everything is still totally up in the air, and they don’t want to relay information that may shortly become inaccurate.
