Despite many recent challenges, the U.S. Department of Labor predicts that “demand for legal work will continue as individuals, businesses, and all levels of government will need legal services in many areas.” Employment is expected to grow by 6 percent from 2018 to 2028. More than 1.3 million lawyers were employed in the United States in 2019, according to the American Bar Association (ABA). The total number of legal professionals (including paralegals, legal secretaries, judges, law professors, law firm managers, etc.) is probably 2.1 million or higher.
