Latest Law Firm Benefit Is College Coaching

Several large law firms are offering college coaching to help lawyers and staffers whose children are going through the admissions process.

Older law firm employees who no longer use on-site child care are likely to see a benefit in college coaching, the National Law Journal reports. The consulting program may include on-site and online seminars, one-on-one counseling by phone or in person, and access to a help desk.

Law firms that are offering the new benefit include DLA Piper, Kelley Drye & Warren, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman and Reed Smith, the story says.
