Whatte News ...
In this case, Nishant may just have a few years under his belt, but he is also becoming the most senior in-house lawyer in an interesting company that some private practice lawyers may want as a client.
In that mindset, his move probably allows him a lot more variety and decision making powers. In either case, I am sure its still better than any decisions he probably would not be taking for quite a few years being in a law firm. Must commend him on having the guts to take this move at this stage as a solo counsel
I predict that this guy will make big, big money over the years, and those who are dismissing this as a distraction from the law firm Game of Thrones will be spamming his LinkedIn inbox to try and get a meeting.
