Loeb is a great firm to work for with a genuinely collegial culture. People are approachable and supportive, and the firm maintains a steady flow of work from a balanced mix of top-tier and mid-tier clients, which helps keep projects interesting and the practice strong.

Like most law firms, bonuses are tied to meeting the typical billable hour requirements. The schedule isn’t a strict 9–6, but the hybrid structure (in-office Tuesday–Thursday) allows flexibility to continue working from home when needed. Depending on your practice group, there may be occasional weekends or periods where you’re working to meet deadlines, and sometimes work can follow you on vacation—but that’s fairly typical in the industry and not always the case.

It’s also a solid environment for working parents, with teams that are generally supportive when people need to balance work and family responsibilities. From our family’s perspective, it’s been a positive place to build a long-term career while still maintaining a good quality of life. (feedback from a spouse of an attorney there for 10+ years)

They were (at least from a few years ago) a little below market but pretty well regarded for media/advertising. Good rep in LA as that’s there HQ

What’s the best way to turn down a 2nd interview? During the 1st interview, I learned that the compensation for the role is not within the range that I am looking for and requires 400 more billable hours a year than what I bill now. I’d basically be laterally for my current salary just to bill 400 more hours. I also wasn’t aware that the local office was strictly ID. Firm website advertises lots of practice areas. Any advice? TIA!
