I've received a few offers to practice US law in Germany. Haven't found the right fit yet.
Transactional tax at a biglaw firm and in house at a commodities dealer.
Would love to know this.
Worked in London for ~2 years as a US-trained lawyer. Technically a litigator but I focus on government and internal investigations, worked on cross-border investigations and international arbitration while I was there. The move was part of a rotation at my firm, came back to the US office I started in after those 2 years.
I wish I was more helpful, but following this thread!
No worries, always good to know when there are likeminded people around!
I’m licensed in ny and am working in Asia. I’d say 60% of my work is niche/project based so I can do that from anywhere no problem. The other 40% is still litigation (which I’m trying to escape) and advice and counsel. I internally transferred w my firm.
Happy to chat via dm!
Most Latin America countries don’t have mandatory bar requirements and usually only require a local law degree (or homologation) if you will litigate. For corporate, commercial, transactional work, most successful firms do benefit from the diversity, legal skill set and language skills that a non-local brings to the equation. The salaries, however, can easily by half or one third for the comparable work in the US or Europe, however, the cost of life are also substantially lower and the quality of life (and food) tends to be higher…
