What is this DLA Piper firm people keep mentioning in this bowl? I have literally never run across it professionally but I see it is apparently top 5 gross income. Does it do that insurance defense thing people keep talking about here which I have also never heard of?

I find it really hard to believe you have not somehow run into DLA Piper. I’d never work there, but they are huge. It’s like not knowing who Baker McKenzie is.

I think this is a case of a “you” problem.

They do IP and employment work in the nether reaches of the planet that other firms have never reached before or have connections. Other firms just reach out to DLA instead of make relationships with local counsel

DLA does much more than IP and employment. It has pretty much every type of corporate and litigation group possible because of the size of the firm. I hate working here but it’s undeniable that the firm does pretty much every kind of work.

I love DLA as a client. Ute Krudewagen is the best.

I applied for a lateral job in a growing group that doesn’t have associates yet.

Is there anything else I can do? I would be switching practices altogether so I want to be as proactive as possible to know what I’m getting myself into (and make my app more favorable because I really want to break into the field).
