Why big law?
I did a full day of OCIs at the University of Wisconsin yesterday.
We asked every single one: why big law?
The answers were all true:
⚖️ complex and fast paced work
⚖️ for sophisticated clients
⚖️ with top notch colleagues
⚖️ locally and across the country
⚖️ wealth of resources
⚖️ structured mentorship and professional development
⚖️ balanced with pro bono opportunities and community involvement networking
#biglaw gets a bad rap, but (again): it is not all bad.
I’ve only ever known big law and except for a few (particularized/unique) moments, it has been one hell of a ride.
I look forward to welcoming the next generation.
