The Update on Associate Attrition and Hiring (Calendar Year 2025) report covers overall associate attrition and hiring with detailed analyses of departure destinations (other firms/in-house, or other), factors driving associates' departures, and whether the departures were wanted or not from firms' perspectives, as well as comparisons of data by entry-level and lateral status, demographic cohorts, geographic region, firm size (including statistics and analysis specific to firms of 501-1,000 attorneys and more than 1,000 attorneys), "boomerangs" and rehires, and other key metrics.
This year’s study includes new information on how AI affected associates’ careers, including whether a desire for support or training in AI resources influenced associates’ decisions to leave their firms, providing important benchmarking information as law firms continue to adapt to and adopt AI tools.
