Perkins Coie Defers Corporate Associates' Start Dates.

Perkins Coie has deferred the start dates for its first-year associates, except those in the intellectual property practice, from this fall to January 16, 2024, due to challenging market conditions that have slowed demand for legal work in several areas of practice.
