Don't go to Fenwick

Why

Fenwick is hurting. don’t go there

It definitely isn't hurting lol. It is doing very well. But they are still cheap and would still avoid

A lot of people ITT trying to go to Fenwick worried about the competition lmao

You've already self identified yourself by quoting them if that was said in confidence.

Yeah, I'm calling bullshit. Won't show hours or tier/level at Fenwick, and can't even name partners who are allegedly going around disparaging firm practice. Nice FUD 👍

Law students need to be banned from this bowl.

Hi everyone! First time posting here. I am in a good sales role at my current company but it’s my first solid AE role in the tech industry. I am interested in exploring other opportunities as I know there are a lot out there, but is anyone else worried about the current economic state? I’m worried that if I find a new position for a new company and the economy going to sh** that I am worried about job security. Anyone else feel this way?

Hi boys & girls!

Joined a big firm (Big4) not long a go and starting to feel like I got a good grip on my current work.

I've always been very technical, so I think that the only thing I am missing now is making sales. (I really wanna make partner)

Can any seasoned lawyer share tips and materials (i.e. books) which can help?

Would it be a good idea to join a Social Club where potential clients spend time? (gym/tennis/paddel/events)
