Top Law Schools

Anyone have any insight on this P side boutique? Billable hours, how work is done and divided up, salary, vibe, collegiality, business, etc. Essentially, any thoughts or insights welcome.

I went against them and thought they were top notch and that their cases and lawyers were great.

I interviewed there and got the sense that it might be a meat grinder. I was told that associates really needed to fight and put up a great argument to be promoted and “if you can’t make a case to us for promotion why would we trust you to make a case to a court for our clients.” I remember being pretty offended when they offered me a staff attorney position even though I was at a big-ish name vault firm. They were nice about it. Said that’s all they had an opening for at the time, but they got that I wouldn’t be interested.

The guy I interviewed with was a fraud on the market guy and he was pursuing LIBOR-based cases.

This was all several years ago and I don’t remember much other than that.

What do associates make over there?
