[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think many of you are missing the fact that this person -- clerkship, top school -- could have gone to big law, but spent ten years doing actual trials. Tenth year associates make 250 and barring stellar credentials are not that likely to make parmter or to have trial experience. They major around 250-300. It may not seem "fair" to you but many of the partners in big law are not long term former associates but rather come over from gov.[/quote] Obviously the add'l info provided is relevant, but simply the fact that someone has been in govt for 10 years is not by any means a guarantee that they are attractive to firms (and some firms actually are not inclined to take on someone like that because it can be risky to take on someone who has never had to bill time or develop business).[/quote]
