In writing? By phone? What's the standard?

If they called you, you can call them back. Or you can email. Eventually, TLS will not have all the answers. We're all going to have to start thinking for ourselves at some point.

When accepting a 1L offer, I called the hiring partner who called me to extend the offer and got his voicemail so I left a message and then followed up with an email.

I would call and talk to the partner (or whoever) who extended the offer. When I called to accept my offer, the partner said they would send a formal letter to me (to accept my acceptance? who knows), which I imagine is the last step in the process.

Our Career Services recommends doing it in writing so that you can keep a record of it.

Call the partner you had the most contact with (or the hiring partner, if you met with him/her) to accept. Follow up with an email to recruiting. A few days letter you should get a letter confirming your acceptance.

Make sure you stamp your offer letter with your royal seal too.

Holy Shit. This.
Completely forgot about this scene. I have had radio silence after some cbs and I'm considering doing this.
