Lawyers exist to serve the needs of their clients. Clients are the
lifeblood of every law firm. Regardless of size or prestige,
without clients, a firm can't survive. Many associates are often

mean forfeited annual pay raises, decreased bonus opportunities,
stalled promotion prospects and even job loss.

women. It was the year of frozen eggs, racist statements, income
inequality, and the openly gay CEO. It was the year that Wall
Street got soft, and the year that an unknown schoolteacher in
China who hatched a company in his tiny apartment became a
multi-billionaire in the largest IPO in history. It was 2014. And

The past couple of days have brought a rash of headlines about
union victories at the National Labor Relations Board-most of which
are based on decisions that the NLRB has made that theoretically

articles have been accompanied by quotes from individuals and
lobbyists on either side of the debate, touting the rulings either
