Back in March, when the economy looked particularly bleak, Katten Muchin Rosenman decided to defer the start date for its incoming class of first-year associates until February 2010.

But now Katten Muchin is asking six members of the class to begin work this month, due to an influx of legal work, a spokesman for the Chicago-based international firm tells the ABA Journal in a written statement.

“These associates will practice in the areas of litigation and intellectual property and are spread across all firm offices,” says Jason Milch of Jaffe Associates Inc.
