Re: Winston & Strawn
Litigation or Corporate? I am not in that office, but I know a bunch of the NY associates and partners. If you want to do antitrust, especially around sports there isn't a better office to be in (can't speak to the rest of lit). Corporate is busy, but the partners that I have worked with are nice. Securities, PE M&A and finance are the biggest corporate subgroups. Lot more facetime than the other offices, but that is just a NY thing.

Definitely leaning litigation and the area you mentioned above. Curious if you have heard anything about culture? Dug up some old threads on here that made it seem like things used to be pretty bad (although they were from 8-10 years ago)Anonymous User wrote:Litigation or Corporate?

Re: Winston & Strawn
Yeah, Winston NY is completely different than what it was 10 years. Prior to 2012 it was an office with less than 100 attorneys. Then it took a bunch of dewey people and is around 300 now. I obviously am in corporate and haven't worked with them, but I have never heard anything but good things about Kessler and his team.Anonymous User wrote:Definitely leaning litigation and the area you mentioned above.
