Crain's New York Business Quotes Michael Lord
 Some
small firm practitioners are moving to large,
elite New York City law firms in a trend
examined by Crain’s
New York Business in its September 10,
2007 edition. Usually occurring in busy practice
areas like real
estate or securities, Lord called some of
these job moves "head-scratchers." He
explained, "I'm not saying they're
bad lawyers, but based on their credentials
on paper, the thought of candidate A going
to firm B just leaves you scratching your
head and wondering how that happened."

Compliance
Salaries Sizzle, Says Lord
 Compliance
officer salaries continue to rise according
to a recent September
issue of the Compliance
Reporter, an Institutional Investor
publication. The reason is simple: regulatory
demands are up and supply of qualified
compliance staff is down. According
to Lord, "While pay of all levels
of compliance officers will go up, the
top levels are where demand is strongest
and supply most competitive."
