Re: Summer Classes 2021 Edition
Leverage on the higher side, and never having all that high a profit margin in the first place (34% in 2019) makes you particularly vulnerable to slowdowns in your money-making areas. A 33% profit margin gets entirely wiped out by a 25% decline in revenue (very plausible in a downturn) unless you cut expenses. For one example re: Shearman, 2020 in particular was a terrible time to be connected to energy, especially oil/gas. They're not really in a lot of the boom areas where other firms were cleaning up (and have been cleaning up for the past decade). Maybe the poster child for the group of firms who never really recovered from 2008. Looks like for whatever reason (Texas expansion?) they didn't wind up actually cutting expenses on the year.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 12:58 amWow.. A 23% decline in profits... Does anyone know what's going on at Shearman?
I don't know the particulars of why they've lost so much business over the years; an insider could presumably fill you in there.

Somewhat related, but at least last summer (due to covid) some firms paid summers before they started after truncating the program. Did firms offer advances then, too?

Associates per equity partner. More associates billing per partner (more bodies on a transaction, more hands on a brief) is $$$$$$ during a boom economy. But the associates liabilities (relatively speaking) when the work dries up.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 11:10 pmThis may be a dumb law student question, but would you mind explaining what leverage means in this context?Monochromatic Oeuvre wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 11:35 amLeverage on the higher side, and never having all that high a profit margin in the first place (34% in 2019) makes you particularly vulnerable to slowdowns in your money-making areas.
High leverage in NYC would be like 5+ associates per partner in my book (where most firms are leveraged pretty high to begin with). Some firms can handle it well because they will always have work to go around. Others can’t.

Re: Summer Classes 2021 Edition
Leverage is how many people each equity partner is paying for, or mathematically, the ratio of all lawyers who aren't equity partners to equity partners. So if you have 500 lawyers in your firm with 100 equity partners, your leverage is 4 to 1. I would say anything more than 5 to 1 is considered high by Biglaw standards, but I see firms go up to 9 to 1.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 11:10 pmThis may be a dumb law student question, but would you mind explaining what leverage means in this context?Monochromatic Oeuvre wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 11:35 amLeverage on the higher side, and never having all that high a profit margin in the first place (34% in 2019) makes you particularly vulnerable to slowdowns in your money-making areas.
As in finance, leverage magnifies both the ups and downs of a law firm's business. In boom times, more associates generating revenue with fewer partners sharing the pie is great for PPP. But when business slows down and associates become unprofitable, more associates mean more losses. One of the weaknesses of PPP as a metric is that a firm with a very weak financial profile can achieve a high PPP simply by being very levered. All else being equal (key phrase here!), an associate should prefer low leverage, as it means a firm will be more amenable to associate compensation increases and promotion of new partners than high-leverage firms.

Just an ignorant 2L but in Harvard’s case it probably has something to do with LW’s Boston’s office?

Re: Summer Classes 2021 Edition
Latham DC hired a ton of GULC grads last year, it probably did this year too. It seemed to have a larger preference for local schools than other DC offices. Maybe because it's big on transactional and probably fewer people from outside of the area target DC for M&A or PE.

ya i think this is fair - also latham has smaller ny office than most of the peer firms, and almost half the size of PW, and 2/3 the size of DPW in new york (firms that are truly deep rooted in ny). KE and skadden is also a lot larger in new york. But i do think that skadden and ke also have strong national focus, so maybe the class list composition for those two firms would be similar

Re: Summer Classes 2021 Edition
Totally agree - many ppl who attend NYU and CLS, based on my experience attending one of these two schools, is pretty NY-centric, so naturally favors firms with deeper roots in NY market. PW and DPW also have significantly larger NY SA class (DPW is >90% larger than LW, and PW is >50% larger), so more nyu/cls students makes total sense. Even for LW, all the NYU students this summer are at the nyc office, and most of the CLS students at nyc office as well.

GULC (3) [+1 D.C.]It's more likely instead that LW offices match up better with HLS and GULC student preferences on geography, and LW doesn't have the same favoritism for NYU and CLS in its NYC office that the NYC-centric firms do. (And it's not just coming from the firm's end: fairly or unfairly, the student perception of LW at my CCN is a tad weaker than comparable firms like KE, Skadden, etc. I am not sure whether that's true of the student perceptions at HLS and GULC.)Anonymous User wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 2:22 pmPaul Weiss
