It's that time again. As the year comes to a close many firms are beginning the associate review process. Even if your firm does not have a formal review process I recommend that you write a self-evaluation that outlines your achievements and specifies your goals for the coming year. Because I have worked in law firms for over 25 years I have seen a variety of review processes, and whether or not a self-evaluation is part of your firm's process I want to share a few tips I have learned through the years.
You should be familiar of your firm's performance management system. Ask your supervising attorney(s), the professional development department or someone in human resources about the process. There are probably written materials, a slide presentation or a video that explains the steps. Of course, you can ask your colleagues, but they may or may not be fully versed in the details and will share their own opinion of the process. For example, they may think no one reads a self-review so they opt to not complete one. From my experience, not completing a self-review is detrimental when the reviewers begin to formulate their comments.

In recent years, there has been a growing number of dry cleaners claiming to be "organic," "green," or "eco-friendly."
