I have a videocon interview this week. BigLaw-to-BigLaw. I’m interested in the job, but don’t feel strongly about it. Obviously, I would look presentable no matter what. But do I wear a suit and tie??? I just feel so silly about it. And I’m imaging the hiring partner in t-shirt/jeans on the other side.

Partner and I disagree about usage of case law. Throughout my career, I’ve cited a case that has good/applicable law but may not have the ultimate factual finding that supports my position. In that case, I distinguish it. Partner got heated about using case law in this manner. Has anyone else used case law this way? Especially if there isn’t a case with the perfect factual outcome to fit your scenario?
