It's just easier to have a discussion when you're not anon. I don't think abusing the anon feature is "autistic" or particularly annoying it's just inconvenient because it's hard to tell who is quoting who and who is responding to who. Just use your regular username, no one cares who you are in real life. We are all faceless nameless cogs anyways.

Jesus Christ. Someone needs to shove these nerds into a locker. Shut the fuck up unless it's about earning more money.

Okay at this point, we need to ask what’s going on with the supposedly “elite” litigation boutiques. Where is the response from Williams and Connolly, Susman, Boies, and Munger Tolles. Any associate working at one of those firms has a resume that can run circles around anyone at Cravath or S&C. Those “elite” firms are getting SHAMED by Selendy and by Hueston Hennigan.

Curious -- what is the most important metric in guessing whether a firm will/will not match? Profits per partner/lawyer? Gross revenue? Something else?

Not sure about the "run circles" bit but I'm going to bet that you're at one of the "elite" litigation boutiques you've mentioned.

The real question is whether Wilson Sonsini’s Wilmington office is going to match. Indicative of where things are going in the future for Delaware-based biglaw.

It is relative to Cravath. It's way harder to get a job at Williams and Connolly than at Cravath. Idk about Boies, they seem slightly less selective than the other lot, but Susman and MTO are substantially more selective than Cravath, S&C, etc.

Totally disagree. The real question here is whether Cooley’s Broomfield office is going to match. Indicative of where things are going in the future for Colorado-but-not-Denver-based biglaw.

Going to disagree with you both. The real question here is whether Fried Frank’s Frankfurt office is going to match. Indicative of where things are going in the future for Frank-based biglaw.

Oh sweetheart. Top 1/3 at a T13 can get a job at S&C. At Williams and Connolly, Keker, Susman, Bartlit Beck, and MTO, you need a fed clerkship. You’re so wrong it’s not even fun to shame you.

The issue is, at places that require those kinds of resumes, how can the partners get away with being so behind market on comp?

So many sub-T14 kids at Boies. Not that selective at all.

Sorry, you're wrong. I summered at one of those "elite" places but elected not to go back and I know 2 people who are in my class year--1 who I summered with and another who I went to law school with--who had NO CLERKSHIP at all but still got jobs at that "elite" firm. So, it might be marginally more difficult but you're so wrong with your blanket statements that it's not even fun to shame YOU.
