Advice to law firm management:
If you can endure high levels of stress with little life outside of work then it may be worth to work at this. Work/life balance is a challenge but it is still achievable if you learn to manage your time in an effective way.
Pros:
Learned something new every day. Learned how to work as a team to achieve the Firm's overall goals. The range of work and clients that I'm exposed to is stimulating and interesting.
Cons:
From my experience I personally find the work life balance at Jeffer Mangels Butler & Mitchell, L.L.P. to be quite atrocious. Remuneration is below average or at the best average.

Advice to law firm management:
I would of liked to see management make sure that everyone really enjoys their work first and foremost. I would then like to see management replace a few of the current attorney's working in the office with professionals that actually enjoy their work.
Pros:
I thought that the pay was great and the benefits were great as well. I formed some good relationships with some of the interns that were there as well. Health insurance was excellent as well.
Cons:
I felt as though many of my coworkers did not enjoy their work and this showed in the way that they treated the front desk staff and interacted with their other coworkers.

Diversity Write a review
JMBM was founded in 1981 in Los Angeles, California -- one of the most diverse cities in one of the most diverse states in the nation. While our law firm grows, it continues to reflect the diverse population of California and the nation. Diversity is integral to the success of our firm. We believe that people from differing backgrounds and cultures help us to understand our clients' changing needs and to develop creative solutions that achieve our clients' goals. We continue to be committed to achieving a workplace environment in which all lawyers and staff feel welcomed, valued and included.
Summer associate program
Our summer program provides a unique experience for law students to learn firsthand what makes JMBM a great place for lawyers and clients. We hire a small number of law students from top law schools across the country to take part in our program in our Los Angeles office. Our summer associates are provided opportunities for real participation in the high-quality legal work our Firm does every day. Our program is designed to provide the foundation for a long and successful career at JMBM.
We are looking for summer associates who are eager to take on responsibility and can handle it. Summer associates work directly with Partners to provide legal solutions to the Firm's ongoing matters - an experience similar to that of a first-year associate. Summer associates are provided feedback on their assignments so as to encourage problem solving, independent thinking, and pride in their work product. We also provide summer associates with a variety of training opportunities in several practice areas. Each summer associate is paired with a mentor to provide guidance throughout the summer and beyond.
Our program provides several opportunities throughout the summer to have fun and get to know our lawyers on an informal basis. Some of our past events have included cooking classes with one of LA's premier chefs, lunches with the Laker's General Counsel and local judges, cultural events, baseball games, trivia night, and wine tastings.
