Advice to law firm management: Revise your approach to how people move up in the firm. Not everyone is single with no other life outside the office to get in the way of working long hours.
Pros: There is plenty of challenging work, a long list of great clients, fantastic lawyers and the senior management is simply outstanding. There is great support on you cases from management and associates.
Cons: They will work you until you drop if you let them, but you really have to do this if you want to move up. Moving up can be a difficult process unless you really put in a lot of overtime and produce big.

Diversity
At Finnegan, we don't just value diversity, we live it every day in thought, approach, and solutions. In fact, it's so much a part of our culture, we are consistently ranked as one of the nation's top law firms for minority and overall diversity. In the Vault Guide's 2015 survey of the leading law firms for women, minorities, and overall diversity, Finnegan was ranked in the top 10 in each of these categories. American Lawyer similarly ranked the firm in the top 25 in its 2012 survey of the top 100 U.S. law firms for overall diversity. We are particularly pleased to be identified by Working Mother magazine as a top 100 company for working mothers. Only five law firms in 2012 received this distinguished recognition. Additionally, for the last two years, Working Mother magazine and the Women in Law Empowerment Forum (WILEF) ranked Finnegan as one of the top law firms in the United States for women. Both organizations cited the significant role women serve in Finnegan's management and leadership.
Summer associate program
Our Summer Associate Program is designed to expose law students to the field of intellectual property law and to provide an accurate idea of an associate's work at the firm. The 10-week summer program stresses professionalism, training, and development. Last year, our summer associates had the opportunity to engage in a diverse mix of work, including: attending trials, appellate and motion hearings, depositions, and client meetings; researching and writing on various patent, trademark, copyright, procedural, and evidentiary issues; prosecuting patent and trademark applications; writing speeches and articles; and presenting reviews of recent Federal Circuit decisions. Summer Associates have outstanding technical backgrounds in engineering and the natural sciences, and are typically in the top 25% of their law school class.
