I am at Littler New York but want to move to Northern California where I’m from. I am already barred in California but don’t know how to ask for a transfer. I am a mid level currently. Should I just find a new job?

I’m at another L&E big 4, and word on the street is that we’re desperate for associates in CA. Might not be too hard of a move.

Every employment practice is desperate for associates in ca lol. Seriously the easiest way to make over 200k as a lawyer in CA if you have bare minimum credentials is to pursue management side employment

You just tell your OMS and then talk to the OMS of the office you want to go to.

Your business development lead can find out who the lead recruitment shareholder is for the NorCal office (it’s not always the OMS) and inquire to see if they’re accepting internal transfers. The answer will likely be yes, esp if you’re already barred in the state

I transferred from Littler in NY to another office that was hiring - it is doable! Just reach out to both OMS’s and express your interest in staying with the firm but switching offices.

I transferred offices. You just tell your OMS what you want to do and they get it rolling. You can always look into other firms though.

Yeah. It’s a “Swiss Verien” model.

Just ask - littler let me switch offices pretty easily

I do. I just asked and after some internal discussion they approved it.

You should go bigger

I was actually making a joke cause bigger is the opposite of littler. But this too I guess, although Morgan Lewis is a bunch of slimy, trump-supporting losers

Where in NorCal? I would maybe reach out to the OMP in the office you’d like to work out.
