Gen-Z: Shaping Tomorrow’s Law Firm Culture, a survey of law school students who were born between 1995 and 2000, explores Generation Z’s view of the legal profession and their expectations for practicing law.

- Expectations for work life
A few highlights from the survey:
- Fifty-nine percent of respondents plan to join Big Law, while 21% are looking to join a mid-sized firm. Somewhat surprisingly, 11% want to join a nonprofit.
- In the long term, 31% want to go into government/nonprofit, 30% want to go in-house and 23% want to become a partner at a law firm.
