How does one apply to Quinn Emanuel? The practice area I'm interested in does not have any attorneys in my state. Not sure how this would work.

I don't think that's necessarily an issue -- QE is extremely remote work friendly, and you can work with people in other offices.

Is there a QE office in the general area where you live? If so, you should apply there, I think. Happy to answer more questions. I'm in the DC office, so that's the focus of my knowledge.

I will second my colleague. It is intense generally but it is far more dependent on what partners you fall in with. Some will be every terrible story you hear about QE but others are great and actually care about developing you as an attorney.

I went client side and am miserable - it’s madness on this side. Have made it 90 days and would prefer not to make it more than 120 - but we’re in a pandemic. Half of the problem is that I “onboarded” remote and the onboarding was TERRIBLE. The other thing is that there is no process and I’m on a team full of managers who have spent 15 years at this company and have no availability to talk to me with a day full of meetings. I’d prefer not to quit without a backup but I cry every day.

the main partner I work for hasn’t been giving me consistent enough work (or type I want) so while I work for him still on some deals, I’ve had to go and get other work from other partners. He doesn’t regularly check in on what I’m working on. He keeps volunteering me for projects without checking if I have capacity and if he expected to know everything I’m working on… he would’ve thought I was just doing nothing the last 2 months. I don’t know how to address this workload balancing with him!

Mid-level here. Has anyone gotten their firm to approve their doing work at a deep discount and, if so, what strategies did you use? A potential client approached me directly about a small matter (~20 to 30 hr amicus brief). The potential client (gov’t) pays a standard rate ~40% lower than mine, but I want to take on the project because it would be a good professional opportunity (e.g., high profile case & client) and of course the lower rate won’t affect my comp directly. 🤷‍♀️ All advice welcome!
