Lots of data available in Sarah Lawsky‘s Entry-Level Hiring Report (lasted edited 05/31/26). From the report, “there were 105 tenure-track hires at U.S. law schools reported, at 75 different law schools.” How does 105 reported hires compare to past years? As the report indicates “Consistent with the last few years. The average number of hires per year in the full 2014-2026 span is 92. The average number of hires per year in the 2014-2021 span (inclusive) was 76; the average number of hires per year in the 2022-2025 span (inclusive) was 122.” An Explore page in beta “allows you to explore the reported entry-level law faculty hiring data.” And lots of information in an “Additional Resources” page.
