Hey Everyone!

Next Thursday, 1/27, we'll be having a live text-based Q&A in here all day with Tony Thai, CEO of Hyperdraft, on exiting Big Law.

Any and all questions are welcome regarding leaving Big Law to go in-house or non-traditional, starting your own venture, avoiding burnout, or really anything you want to ask!

A thread will be dropped in the morning, and close at the end of the workday. Tony will be available and popping in all day to answer your questions.

Cheers,
