Lewis & Clark Law School’s Career Services Office was proud to report that, as of the ABA’s March reporting deadline, 93% (142/153) of the 2025 Lewis & Clark Law School grads were employed or pursuing a graduate degree within 10 months of graduation.
Of the employed grads, 90% are in bar-required, JD-advantaged positions – deemed the most coveted positions for a law degree. Twenty graduates, or 14.4% are judicial law clerks, 69 or 49.6% are employed in law firms, and 26 or 18.9% are employed in public interest legal positions.
“These employment numbers demonstrate the hard work of our graduates, as well as the supportive efforts of our faculty, staff and most of all, our career services team, all of whom work together to help our graduates find meaningful work as they begin their legal careers,” said Dean Alicia Ouellette. “At Lewis & Clark Law, this support begins on the first day of law school. It is gratifying to see the results of those efforts.”
