Fordham is heavily recruited by all of the top law firms in New York, and there
is an excellent and active alumni network. Many state and federal judges are
Fordham graduates, and many Fordham students get internships with prominent
judges. Some major NY-based firms with prominent Fordham partners hire a large
number of Fordham students. Fordham is not as well-represented in non-New York
firms. Nationally, Fordham is still considered second tier relative to the top
law schools, so it is still relatively difficult for people below the top 10% or
who are not on Law Review to get a job at a top firm. Nonetheless, the placement
office does an excellent job of placing people in midsize firms, in-house legal
departments, and government positions. I believe most Fordham grads have job
offers when they graduate.
