Dovel & Luner
Anyone have insight, information, or thoughts on the firm Dovel & Luner? They are very small, but their recruiting email mentions a generous salary and real experience. One worry is their long-term viability; another is diversity of practice areas. Anyone go through their application process, or have a feel for them? They are so small that fit/personality really would matter, as would stability of pay for a firm based on a mostly plaintiff-side contingency fee structure.

They pay extremely well (they are very upfront about the compensation structure, and the sizeable bonuses, just look on their website).Anonymous User wrote:Anyone have insight, information, or thoughts on the firm Dovel & Luner?

That said, none of these concerns really matter right now. Get an interview and then an offer before you need to start worrying too much about this, because there's a reason they pay so well--they hire basically 0 new people, and those they do hire are pretty much the cream of the crop (check profiles on firm website).
Edit: They seem to heavily favor Harvard grads (founder went to HLS), so if you're at HLS and this is a hiring year for the firm, you may at least have a shot, assuming you have pretty much top grades. But, you may not get a ton of info because I don't think they've hired anyone in at least a few years.
