SURVEY SAYS


Associate Life
Vault’s Verdict: While not a particularly social workplace, Proskauer offers its associates tremendous responsibilities and opportunities to learn, which is about as much as a BigLaw attorney could ask for.

Satisfaction:

•    “I am very satisfied with my job. I have had great opportunities to do work in the areas of law that I am interested in.” –Junior litigator
•    “I have had opportunities to thrive here, working directly with partners on a variety of interesting cases, doing work that one wouldn't expect a junior associate at a Big Law firm would have an opportunity to do.” –Los Angeles associate
•    “If I were to leave, it would be to leave the BigLaw environment altogether.  I am as satisfied as I can be in the large firm environment.” –Corporate associate

Proskauer Rose LLP Perspective


THE SCOOP

Swish! And goal! And other sports metaphors! Proskauer Rose LLP is practically synonymous with "sports law." (Clients include Major League Baseball, the NFL, the NHL and the NBA.) However, this reputation shortchanges the rest of the firms incredibly diversified practice, which features topnotch corporate, litigation, labor and employment, real estate, tax, health care and entertainment practices.

Excellence personified

Founded in 1875 in New York City, Proskauer Rose has grown to be one of the nation's largest law firms, providing a broad field of legal services to clients throughout the United States and the world. We now number seven domestic and three international offices, and practice in all areas important to business, including corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions, real estate transactions, bankruptcy and reorganizations, taxation, litigation, intellectual property, and labor and employment law. Our clients represent some of the most influential players in industries ranging from financial services to information technology, pharmaceuticals to transportation. In all our high stakes matters, for all our disparate clients, we uphold a standard of excellence, innovation and unwavering dedication to our clients interests. And it's our lawyers- graduates of the nation's best law schools, active in civic, philanthropic and trade organizations, and holding leadership positions in government agencies, the judiciary, charities and corporate boards- who personify that ethos of excellence.

Getting Hired

Tips from the inside

Getting in at Proskauer requires personality.  “Socially awkward people need not apply,” says a litigator.  Candidates must be “smart, engaging, driven, and personable.”  Like many firms, the economic climate has made the hiring process “extremely competitive” and the firm has become “very selective.  Like most BigLaw firms, the firm prides itself on recruiting the best and brightest - candidates will need to have differentiated themselves through stellar academics, prior experiences and generally, the firm likes personable characters.”
