Best firm for Government Work

Post by Anonymous User » Sat Sep 13, 2014 10:52 am

I want to eventually go into the government doing either energy or environmental work. Baker Botts seems better in those practice areas, but Mayer Brown is a better firm in DC overall. Which matters more?

What practice area is the MB offer for? Litigation?

MB is a great firm but I'd probably take BB (assuming all other factors like culture, fit, etc are equal) since they do the kind of work that you're interested in.
