Re: Altshuler Berzon
If you want to do union-side work they've got a great reputation, and they're one of the very few firms where you can make a decent living doing so.

Re: Altshuler Berzon
I did some research on them and it seemed really well respected in their field and cool that they work with unions.

Re: Altshuler Berzon
they do recruit a 2L class but apparently with the expectation you will clerk, not go to the firm, after 3L. Not sure if those folks have a spot post-clerkship but they are probably in a good position anyway.imchuckbass58 wrote:And a 9th Circuit clerkship.Anonymous User wrote:very elite. i think they take like one person from each top school (T6) each year. need amazing stats.

Re: Altshuler Berzon
They do have a spot to return. I have several friends who have gone there in past summers/will go there this summer. There isn't an explicit "clerk to get an offer" expectation, but there's definitely an encouragement to do so.Anonymous User wrote:they do recruit a 2L class but apparently with the expectation you will clerk, not go to the firm, after 3L.

I'd also note that almost 1/7 of the firm clerked for Berzon herself.
