No when was it?

Ha- not entirely sure, was trying to find out. :)

I did!

Sweet. Did the firm pay for it? Just curious how one gets into the right group to get invited.

Yeah the firm paid, it was this past August at the Caesar Palace in Vegas. It will also be there this upcoming year. I ask my partner to send me and the client requested for me to go as well. Which office/group are you?

Senior attorneys at v100, how common is it for attorneys who start at small firms to lateral to biglaw? Have you worked with any? Conventional wisdom is always that if you don’t start there it’s hard to “trade up”. My coworker and I just did it to two different great v30 firms, and I’m wondering if it’s really that uncommon? Just out of curiosity. We’re not special counsel with special niche skills or anything, just associates. Pitfalls to beware? Positives?
