Top Law Schools

Hello!

2L here-- I find myself going back and forth between these two options (that I'm very happy with), so I thought I'd post here.

I'm interested in litigation and working in the government in the future. I've spent a significant amount of time in the DC area and would like to go back in the future, but I like NY and I'm concerned about closing the door on NY and a fun new experience (especially at a young age). On the other hand, I worry that but that I may not be Type A enough for NY and that the work will be completely bank focused. Additionally...

Wilmer
Pro
Great in DC
Fit in well with the people
Lots of government folks
Supposedly less facetime required

Paul, Weiss
Pro
Seem more trial lawyer focused
Lock-step compensation and market bonuses
NY is fun

Thoughts? Anything I am not considering? I would appreciate any insight.

Thanks!

Two great options. It comes down to would you rather be in DC or NY? I don't think going to Wilmer now would close the door on NYC in the future if that is your main hang up

Yeah - the deciding factor should be where you want to be, because they're both great options.
