Sampling of New Admittee Stats We are here

On the other end of the demographic spectrum State Bar of Michigan

On the other end of the demographic spectrum New Hampshire Bar Association

So, what does this mean for the profession and our bars? National Association of Bar Executives 2015 Annual Meeting - Chicago

National Association of Bar Executives 2015 Annual Meeting - Chicago The Not-Terrible News LS applications no longer in freefall Projections that law school enrollments will level out in the next 4-6 years Better match of graduates to # of jobs that actually are available Many lawyers don’t retire at 65 Many ramp down their practices gradually National Association of Bar Executives 2015 Annual Meeting - Chicago

My Highly-Asterisked Prediction In 2025, the US lawyer population will be smaller, but not by much More lawyers will be working viable jobs More lawyers in the right places Geographically (though that will matter less) Providing accessible/flexible services Biggest unknown: how technology/automation will continue to affect the profession National Association of Bar Executives 2015 Annual Meeting - Chicago

National Association of Bar Executives 2015 Annual Meeting - Chicago What Should We Be Doing? Model the 10-year demographic picture in our states/jurisdictions Ensure we ID/connect with every new admittee Ensure lawyers transitioning out of practice have a home if they want one Give our mid-career stalwarts some love Bring all members together around issues of mutual concern National Association of Bar Executives 2015 Annual Meeting - Chicago
