We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

This is the best way for lawyers to use LinkedIn.
Full use of chat gpt, ugly fonts and emojis. WHY JUST WHY
You close a funding round for a logistics company — and suddenly it’s about “redefining the childhood dreams of our kids.”
You advise a SaaS startup — and it’s “transforming the air we breathe.”
You help someone raise money — and it’s “about building a sustainable future, one cap table at a time.”
Let’s be honest:
Not every transaction is a climate mission.
Not every equity round is a revolution.
And not every document signed is a legacy moment.
Sometimes a deal is just… a deal.
And that’s okay. We don’t need to wrap everything in emotional packaging to feel it matters.
Gosh! Let’s get back to letting our work speak for itself. without turning it into a TED talk.
