Factoid: Profile of an In-House Attorney

By Brett Gilbert

ADVERTISEMENTS
A colleague in Minnesota recently dug up these interesting facts from a few years ago about in-house attorneys. Those who aspire to in-house practice but think small firm practice is not what you want to do should take particular note.

21% of in-house counsel are sole practitioners (they are the sole attorney in their office).

Departments of two to five attorneys comprise about 38% of the in-house population.

Approximately 85% of in-house lawyers practice in departments of fewer than 20 lawyers.

In other words, the skills you learn in small firm practice are going to be valuable to you as an in-house attorney.
