Atlanta (August 22, 2022) - Independent survey reinforces the firm’s commitment to recruiting and retaining female associates.
Morris, Manning & Martin, LLP has been named a 2022 BTI Associate Satisfaction A-Lister, based on an independent survey of more than 4,000 associates at Am Law 200, global, mid-size, and smaller law firms.
The first-of-its-kind report, “BTI Associate Satisfaction A-Listers 2022: BTI Survey of Law Firms Where Associates Are Happiest,” was developed to uncover the drivers behind associate retention, fulfillment and job satisfaction. The drivers are based on eight key attributes, ranging from access to critical training and career development to salary and mentorship.
MMM was recognized as “distinguished” in these activities that associates value most in deriving high levels of job satisfaction at law firms. In addition, women associates specifically named Morris Manning as distinguished in cultivating associate job satisfaction. This overall recognition earned MMM a coveted place on the BTI Associate Satisfaction A-Listers 2022 list.
“It’s no surprise to me that MMM ranks highly among associates – the firm does an excellent job of prioritizing access to training, mentoring, and providing early hands-on-experience,” said Ashley Klein, an associate in MMM’s Intellectual Property practice. “The firm’s collegial and entrepreneurial culture is a direct reflection of the investment the partnership makes in cultivating critical business development skills among the associate ranks.”
The firm continues to focus on recruiting and retaining women associates and making sure they have a clear path to partnership. Currently, 25% of MMM’s partners, 30% of the newest partner class, 38% of the first-year class and 66% of the summer associates are women, and the firm was ranked #10 for female equity partner percentage out of the Am Law200.
“The firm is honored to receive this recognition, as it is a testament to the tremendous value we place on associates and their professional development as young attorneys,” said Simon Malko, managing partner of the firm’s Atlanta office. “The strong culture we’ve built in our Atlanta and D.C. offices has always attracted young lawyers to our firm, and we’re thrilled to see our efforts to keep associates fulfilled and satisfied have not gone unnoticed.”
