Earlier this month, ATL reported that the National Law Journal had named its twenty “hottest” midsized firms for the year. Among the notable firms (those we’d heard of) that we mentioned was McKool Smith, which the NLJ recognized for winning—for the second year in a row—more Top 100 verdicts than any other law firm, being innovative in the downturn economy by adding a top-flight national bankruptcy practice, and maintaining the ability to be adverse to financial institutions.We told you that, by the time you finished reading our post, you were already late to the resume-posting game. But McKool Smith contacted us and said we were wrong! McKool Smith’s New York office is currently seeking to add associates, and asked us to let you, our dear ATL readers, know.

Qualified candidates should have excellent academic credentials from a top-tier law school and be licensed to practice law in New York. Resumes, transcripts and a writing sample should be sent to
