Any law firms specializing in patent litigation in Dallas that still go to trial regularly? I like my current place, but trial is rare where I’m at. I want to be prepping witnesses, doing examinations, making closing arguments, etc.

Hi everyone. I am trying to change my current company. I am currently working with Stonex and have experience in financial domain for 11 years. My profile is in Surveillance Compliancen, Kyc Aml, QA Six Sigma, Trade Surveillance and ecommunication Surveillance. It would be great if i would have got one referral.

Thanks.

Does AmEx take codility test for hiring? Anyone who can share some insights?

Thoughts on PERI? Looks undervalued compared to MGNI and APPS

I am interested in getting my SHRM-CP certification this year and I was wondering which study methods and materials worked best for those of you who passed the exam. Also, what are your roles in HR?!

Who hates being micromanaged by your boss? I had to deal with a boss who had to be involved with every little thing and it drove me nuts, and made me feel like she didn’t trust me.

Would you ever join faAng even if it wasn't the role you wanted, just to get a foot in the door for a lateral switch soon after?

Any of you using TikTok to display your properties? I see it's working for some realtors and I am tempted to try.

Currently, I have a "sales drought." It's been 2 months that I have not achieved anything and everyone tells me it's normal, but I feel it will be forever. Since I started, I have done very well, but now I do not know what is happening- nothing works as before.

Need advice. How bad is it to go from “forensics” to Sox. Pay is going to be higher. My ideal situation would’ve been to work in investigations/payments/fraud but I’ve not gotten any interviews. Probably just taking it for higher pay and I wouldn’t mind the boring aspect of it.

I never thought I would like a documentary about sports so much and even less one made by ESPN. I'm talking about "The Last Dance". This series shows you the success story of the superstar Michale Jordan and it's extremely exquisite, I recommend it. Who has seen it?

If you didn't have to pay off any more of your student loans what would you use the money for instead? I'm stuck between something impractical like a trip somewhere or something I need like a new car lol

Was anyone else incredibly disappointed with the Hollywood boardwalk when you first came? I didn't even know 99% of the folks there

Recs for LA & San Fran??

Is there any I can get employed in European or US company and work Remotely? Else move there when the pandemic is over?

Currently I have no Visa in hand.

How to get release from a project? Hating the work environment and pressure here.

Texas Big Law friends, might I suggest donating some of that big law cash to causes that are pro-gun control and anti-mass murder of children? I hope you’ll join me.

Anyone have any guidance on how the Roe v Wade situation has played out at work? Anyone come into any issues with Partners? Or anyone impressed with new policies they’ve brought in to accommodate the issue?

Has anyone successfully transferred offices within Texas? Dallas to Austin.

How's inflation and cost of living in Texas this year and any predictions moving forward? With the recession looming or already here I'd like to relocate to somewhere cheaper (currently in Seattle), but only if it's going to stay that way.

Did you vote? I finally made time after work yesterday.

Anyone have thoughts on Akin Gump in Houston? Weighing lateral options as a mid-level.

Folks that have worked in Big Law in other areas of the country, what do you feel is different about being in Texas? I've been offered a role in NYC but may decline because I'm just happier here, culturally.

I’m a 4th-year at a midsize firm doing mostly oil and gas work, but I’m looking to change practice areas so I can get away from a dying/morally problematic industry and move into EC/VC, Corporate, tech transactions, and/or privacy and cybersecurity (have CIPP/US & /E). I’m not having much luck with recruiters or applying directly to firms and companies, so I’m thinking of hiring a career coach to help me hone my applications, cover letters, etc. Any suggestions?

If you had to choose between Dallas or Houston to practice RE. My wife wants to move to Texas and we're narrowing options. Chime in if there's somewhere better I should be looking.

Can anyone give me insight on Winstead Dallas? I am considering laterally to Dallas from Chicago & have a screening interview with Winstead coming up.

Any thoughts on Polsinelli real estate group in Dallas? How’s the pay, WLB, hour requirement etc. thank you!

I wasn’t sure which bowl to solicit advice from so hoping to catch a bite here. I’m currently in ID. Of course, I want OUT! My interests are L&E and corporate. My options are 1) wait it out where I am in hopes to switch to L&E or 2) in house oil and gas industry transactional work. What would you do and why? I figured this bowl being specific to Texas would understand importance of oil and gas industry.

What’s the best real estate shop in Dallas? Not including Winstead or Jackson Walker.

NRF matched Millbank in TX yesterday

Anyone have any insight into the Dallas office of Holland & Knight? Thoughts, feelings, concerns?

I’m a non-TX immigration attorney mentoring a UT student who went to my undergrad. He’s done incredibly well in OCI and pre-OCI. Thus far, he’s landed interviews with (all in Houston): Baker Botts, Sidley Austin, Kirkland, Winston Strawn, Reed Smith, Norton Rose, and Locke Lord. Also Perkins Coie in Dallas. He’s leaning transactional, but also open to litigation. Any insights/advice on these firms in the TX market? Any to avoid?

I saw some job postings on LinkedIn for Vedder Price. Does anyone have insight regarding the firm and culture

Winstead or Jackson Walker people in Dallas (or if you know someone in these office) — how often do you work weekends and what time do you generally “log off” for the day? Also curious as to average annualized hours. Thank you so much!

Do most firms start reporting years in September or January? Prior firm did an August year for counting hours and then another did January (both Amlaw 200). Looking at an Amlaw 100 to lateral in the fall (so trying to anticipate how much of the year I’ll have). I’ll ask what bonus/reporting year but just curious if most follow the same.

Any Dallas firms looking for junior litigation associates right now?
