The Law Firm Challenge results are (almost) in...

As the Campaign for Justice stands at $118,000 of a $280,000 goal [Dec. 2: 9 a.m.], the initiative to
involve younger attorneys is being tallied. This is the second year that a number of law offices joined the Law Firm Challenge, striving to involve as many “under-40” attorneys as possible.

With 14 private firms participating in the Law Firm Challenge, and 5 government law departments, the challenge ended a few days ago, but not all participants have reported in. While waiting on the last 15% to respond (Giddy up!) it is too soon to announce winners in the small firm, mid-size firm, large firm, and government office categories. [For names of participating offices, see the Nov. 18th blog.]

LFC Committee Chair Bill Lowe is chasing down the last reports as this blog is written, and plans for a December 7th celebration at the Strathallan are well under way.

With 85% of the responses in, the chart below shows this year’s incomplete results compared to last year’s final results.Picture

Keep in mind, the pool of “under-40” attorneys at participating firms remains about the same size – ballpark 200 attorneys. Stay tuned for the final tally and announcement of firm winners.

Of course, the true Law Firm Challenge winner is the Campaign for Justice itself! Striving to meet or exceed the CFJ goal – for the 29th year.
