How is Lathams lender side finance group? Is it mainly private credit focused? What size deals? NY if that matters. Lots of work to go around? Too much? Crazy people?

Didn’t a ton just join from KE because KE hired a very poorly received partner from Milbank or CC?

This might be the sponsor finance group not the lender finance group

No they did not hire a ton from KE in the borrower group at LW NY.

One of the strongest groups at Latham NY. Great partners. Look at bios for Nicole Fanjul and Michele Penzer to get a sense of the work. Clients: banks, direct lenders, PE shops

I think it’s like 50/50 private credit vs syndicated. Always seems to be busy and hiring associates.

What can a junior associate do about a mid-level that constantly asks questions about things they were cc’d on, sends dozens of piecemeal emails and is generally just super high strung and needs everything right away?? No other mid-levels I’ve worked with act this way and this individual I’m working with is driving me insane and I’ve spent countless hours attaching emails and saying “as explained in the attached email…”

I just finished a big jury trial with a senior partner (SP). There were co-parties w/separate counsel. SP mentally checked out, to the point that co-counsel was asking what SP was doing/if SP was okay. I ended up handling most everything. SP did a few parts but went rogue and did things that were offensive/risky/bad for client. It became clear that SP is not performing like SP used to and may be a liability. Do I tell someone at my firm? Don’t want to offend SP or cause drama, but I’m concerned.

Let’s talk speed reading. I’m a slow reader and listened to a podcast recently on speed reading. I’m intrigued. Who here speed reads? How did you learn those skills, and what types of documents do you speed read in practice? I do mostly litigation and am thinking that speed reading would help with research but maybe not things like doc review where you need to review for both responsiveness and privilege.
