Anyone have insight into the Cleary funds group? Have heard from outsiders that it's a solid group, but haven't really seen any insiders posting about the group. It also seems like a really small group (their website lists like 20 partners, 5 counsels and 12 associates in the NY office).

Senior attorneys at v100, how common is it for attorneys who start at small firms to lateral to biglaw? Have you worked with any?
