The market for law firms in New Orleans is important to our clients, so it is important to us. Lawyer headcount is one measure of the health of a market. We invite you to review the survey numbers, which were compiled from public sources, to better inform yourself about the state of the New Orleans legal market from September 2014- early July 2015. We think you will find the survey informative and interesting. Please share this information with your team members or anyone you believe would benefit from it.
