Hi {{first_name}},

Here's this week's Saxa Sidebar. Fresh associate openings across the AmLaw firms, pulled this morning. If something catches your eye, just reply and I'll tell you what I know about the role. Where I have a direct line to the hiring team, I'll get your materials in front of a person instead of a portal.

Quick market note: volume is up noticeably from two weeks ago, nearly 280 new postings this week versus 225 then. Litigation and corporate are still driving most of it, and the secondary markets (Dallas, Atlanta, Miami) are showing more activity than usual.

Here's what's new this week:
