Abstract
The authors argue that a law firm's client network affects employee mobility by easing the diffusion of information across firm boundaries, thereby enhancing organizational performance in attaining high-quality lawyers. The argument is tested by using a sample of the largest law firms in the U.S. The law firms are matched to their corporate clients to model the attainment of lateral partners as a function of social relations in which the law firms are embedded. Ways in which social relations of a hiring organization influence the job matching process and its success in the recruitment of high-quality workers are examined.
