  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Nationally, approximately 40% of new attorneys work at firms consisting of more than 50 lawyers. Therefore, a large percentage of practicing attorneys work for small firms (fewer than 50 attorneys). Small firms generally do not have formalized recruiting procedures or a set “hiring season” when they recruit summer law clerks, school-year law clerks, or entry-level attorneys. Instead, these firms hire on an as-needed basis, and they hire year round. To secure employment with a small firm, students and lawyers alike need to be proactive in getting their name and interests out in the community. Applicants should not only apply directly to these firms, but they should connect via law school, community, and bar association activities. In this directory, you will find state-by-state hyperlinks to regional directories, bar associations, newspapers, and job banks that can be used to jump-start a small firm search.

VIRGINIA STATE BAR: THE PROFESSIONS ARE SUBJECT TO THE SHERMAN ACT Richard B. Tyler* I. INTRODUCTION "The nature of an occupation, standing alone, does not provide sanctuary from the Sherman Act ... nor is the public service aspect of professional practice controlling in determining whether § 1 includes professions. ..." With these words, the United States Supreme Court established the applicability of the Sherman Act 2 to the "learned pro- fessions." The import of the Court's holding has not been lost on the anti- trust enforcement agencies. They have recently filed suit or announced in- vestigations of the activities of other professional organizations.3 Some professionals, on the other hand, have attempted to read the decision OAsst.

  • Dear Fellow Virginia State Bar Member: in This Survey Issue of The
    Dear Fellow Virginia State Bar Member: In this survey issue of the Virginia Lawyer are descriptions of all the pro- grams and activities of our Virginia State Bar, some of which you may already be familiar with. (Section begins on page 13.) Others may be new to you. We have also provided a breakdown of how your dues dollar is spent, a feature which we intend to repeat regularly. We are now preparing the bar’s budget for the coming year. The surplus which funded the dues discount we have enjoyed for the past four years is exhausted, and the members of Bar Council must decide the appropriate level of dues for the next several years. In making that determination, we are looking at all activities of the bar, assessing the costs and benefits of each, and considering whether our resources are being properly allo- cated among them. Although each of the bar’s programs has previously been approved by our elected circuit representatives on Bar Council, the Budget and Finance Committee felt that each member of the bar should be offered the opportunity to comment on which programs are most important and which have been most beneficial to you and other members of the bar. We also want to know if there are areas in which you believe the bar can be more responsive and helpful to you, either by expanding services under existing programs or offering new ones (recognizing, of course, that expansion or new programs usually cost money). And if you believe that some programs provide little or no benefit to you, to the public, or to other Virginia lawyers, let us know about those, too.
