I’m a former big law who moved in house but now considering moving back into private practice (crazy, I know). Does anyone know how conflict check apply to my case? I’ve been in-house for about a year. New firm is in the same city as old firm, but I don’t think there would be a lot of crossover client-wise. Issue is I can barely remember the names of my clients a year/2 years ago.

You can ask your old firm for a list of all the matters you worked on/billed on for purposes of conflict checking.

The confidential info you had from firm clients goes “stale” eventually and you don’t have to name them anymore. Idk if different firms have different timeframes on that, but for example I didn’t have to go back several years to my prior firm when I moved the second time.
