Polsinelli has an amazing culture. Loved the Dallas office. I'm guessing pay is going to be well below NRF though.

It shouldn’t even be a competition. Norton Rose Fulbright.

NRF culture isn’t worse than Polsinelli. I don’t know why you’d think that. Also, NRF pays more and is more prestigious.

Agreed with other comments that NRF comp will be better but I also agree that Polsinelli (especially Dallas office) has amazing culture. I would see what feels right to you because you can’t go wrong

Leaning NRF based on reputation but hard without more info. What practice area will be critical to the analysis.

That’s what I was thinking tbh. It’s so unique that firm almost doesn’t matter. Thanks for all your input ^ I’m going to check the headcount and consider the people I’ll be working with daily. Thanks again!

Practice group? What’s important to you?

Sorry I have no idea. The firm as a whole has a great culture and it comes from the top. But I will say it is group dependent how lucky you get, so only people in this group will be able to speak to that. I had a friend in IP but they’ve moved lol! Not the same I know but closer than my group (lit)

Do you have offers at both? If you are at the application or interview stage, do both. If you are at the offer stage, I’d base it on the teams that you met while interviewing + the difference in comp. No one else can really tell you the feeling you got when you saw that offer come in, but that feeling tends to be right.

Thanks for your insight! Offer pending approval for NRF, interview stage Polsinelli. It seems like they are willing to match NRF. Do you think both have equal partnership opportunity? Thanks!

Thanks so much - it’s the patent prosecution group! For some reason, no one has insight on the patent pros groups at these firms. Thanks in advance!

Which one did you pick and why? I’m considering both for a lateral move.

Are you happy?
