It's obviously a little riskier than the typical vault firm, since it's basically a startup. But if you're single, looking for something new, and interested in getting in on the ground floor, this might be a good spot for you.

I have a kid and a big form offer, so this doesn't work for me. But I'd be excited to apply otherwise.

Bro, I don't know. I have no tie to the firm. I'm not a summer, so the third hand suggestion that I should apply doesn't shed much light on whether they want summers. I just know they're in LA, their two head guys seem impressive to me, and I heard that they are busy.

But why not shoot an email and see where it gets you.

I didn't because startups are less stable in my opinion than going to a big name Biglaw firm. But, as a long time TLS poster, I figured it would be nice to pass this along. There used to be an open positions-type thread that I found helpful. I'm sorry that my attempt to help was misperceived as promotion.


Married with a kid has to do with my risk appetite. I'd be interested in getting in on the ground floor if I only had me to worry about. But I don't. So Biglaw here I come.


I was encouraged to email the managing partner to apply. I didn't. But maybe you can. I agree that their website could use work.

Why are you anon?

Jesus fucking Christ. Because I was talking about my family and communications I had with real people and in real life. Because I have hundreds of posts in the employment and clerkship forums and it's getting pretty fucking easy to identify me. I'm frankly a little fucking annoyed that people are second guessing me for a post I did that won't help me even a little bit and may hopefully help someone in the TLS community. God forbid that someone try to direct someone to a potential job opportunity on here instead of doing another "what are my chances" thread or another "should I take X firm or Y firm" thread.

I'd say read the rules for anon posting, but this is obviously a bad troll.

Just out this guy
