PASADENA, Calif. By monitoring the vacancies at the
country's largest, most prestigious firms throughout the year, BCG Attorney
Search analyzed two sets of data, comparing the number of vacancies at top law
firms between January 31, 2005, and January 31, 2006, as well as between
December 2005 and January 2006. Demand for antitrust and trade regulation , intellectual
property, white-collar crime, and telecommunications attorneys shot up
significantly in that period. There was no change in
the number of vacancies for antitrust and trade regulation attorneys, and the

absolute numbers. It 's headquartered in Pasadena,

Houston, Miami, New York, Newport Beach, Palo Alto, San Francisco, and
