A1: Orrick in SF is among the best but it’s a tough environment. (Tough, but not miserable.)

Outside of NY, Kutak Rock is strong and I found the lawyers cooperative and friendly.

Can you name a firm (preferably NY office) that lets its associates work from a different country with no issues? The mid-size firm I’m currently at has been very flexible during covid but I’m looking to change firm (biglaw). Since my family is abroad I find it extremely valuable to be able to do this (I did this even before covid for a couple of weeks, twice a year). I’ve heard firms like Latham and Paul Weiss don’t allow it for tax reasons.
