No, but I’ve told the other company I accepted an offer and would still love to make the connection / learn more about the role. You never know where things go down the road. They can always say no

Outside counsel has been prepping company witnesses for a trial in August. It is my subject area so I am supervising outside counsel. I did not, however, choose the counsel.

Any tips for moving up in a medium/large-sized legal department, aside from switching companies?
