New law school graduates prospects for meaningful employment as an attorney are decidedly bleak, and beginning in February, law schools won't be able to put such a rosy spin on it for prospective students. As representatives of local hiring agencies point out, many area firms have hiring freezes and there is stiff competition for the few openings that do occur.
Now, the American Bar Association's Section on Legal Education and Admission to the Bar is requiring law schools to provide more detailed job and salary information on the questionnaire they provide to the ABA. The expanded information to be required is in the areas of employment status, employer type and employer location.

The American Bar Association may not require law schools to post salary data on their graduates amid concerns over its accuracy and difficulty of collection.
At a meeting March 16 and 17 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., the Standards and Review Committee made several recommendations to the Council of the Section of Legal Education and Admission to the Bar. Among them were tweaks to Rule 16, which relates to sanctions, and Standard 509, which covers consumer information. Those recommendations, which will standardize how information on post- graduate employment is displayed, were accepted.
