Re: OC -- Latham v. GDC v. Jones Day
Pretty broad question - are you focused on transactional or litigation?

Re: OC -- Latham v. GDC v. Jones Day
Latham and GDC are the top two in OC. GDC's HQ is in LA, while Latham is in NY so GDC feels more connected IMO. I heard Latham has more transactional work in OC.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Wed Feb 03, 2021 7:01 pmCurious if anyone has any thoughts on these firms in Orange County?

Latham "doesn't have an HQ" but it was originally an LA firm, not a NY firm. But I think LA is now only its third-largest office after NY and DC.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Wed Feb 03, 2021 7:52 pmLatham and GDC are the top two in OC.

Wikipedia says Latham has HQ in NY but I acknowledge that's probably a bad source.Anonymous User wrote: ↑Wed Feb 03, 2021 8:08 pmLatham "doesn't have an HQ" but it was originally an LA firm, not a NY firm.

Re: OC -- Latham v. GDC v. Jones Day
Anon because I worked at one of these. If lit oriented, probably GDC. If transactional, Latham OC has good work, including some interesting regulatory stuff. JD OC also has a strong M&A/transactional group. I’m not sure which one is “better” but I know there are compensation issues at JD broadly.
