Great culture, happy lawyers, but the pay is not high for TX. Louisiana firm with lower comp and lower rates. But you will have nice work-life balance. They’ve been growing a lot in Houston.

Had a friend who used to work there. She got like 135k as a second year. Don’t know anything about the work. I think she liked working there but pay was one of the reasons she left and went to big law.

I’m a non-TX immigration attorney mentoring a UT student who went to my undergrad. He’s done incredibly well in OCI and pre-OCI. Thus far, he’s landed interviews with (all in Houston): Baker Botts, Sidley Austin, Kirkland, Winston Strawn, Reed Smith, Norton Rose, and Locke Lord. Also Perkins Coie in Dallas. He’s leaning transactional, but also open to litigation. Any insights/advice on these firms in the TX market? Any to avoid?
