Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
Does the firm offer PPOs? What does an A0 offer typically look like in terms of compensation?
I was also curious about the kind of court exposure juniors get
do they regularly appear in court, or is it mostly briefing senior counsel? Are interns/juniors usually involved in such briefings?
I'm particularly interested in the White Collar Crime Defense& Investigations and Dispute Resolution teams, would love to know more about how they work.
Also, how would you describe the culture at the firm? And what’s the growth trajectory like in terms of learning, mentorship, and financial progression?
Thanks so much in advance!
Have heard partners yell at people in hallways and the attrition rate in general is very high.
Briefly spoke to one of the associates during a smoke break, and he also was of the opinion that the culture has got bad lately. He couldn’t talk much obv because they’re not supposed to talk to interns because they’re afraid that confidential data might get leaked if they talk to us..
