A top law firm’s labor and employment practice landed a large class action case, and the firm needed an additional mid-level L&E associate. The firm did not want to permanently hire due to the potential for the case to settle, so they turned to Latitude, which provided an interim attorney with Big Law senior associate L&E experience. ⇢ The Latitude Attorney helped associates at every level, allowing them to handle the increased workload. ⇢ Additionally, the firm’s attorneys knew the Latitude Attorney was not competing with them for hours or a promotion if work slowed.
