[quote=Anonymous]You advise major corporations and banks on how to follow the law. In whatever way works best for their business. And when someone (plaintiff, govt, etc.) disagrees with something they’ve done, you defend them. Partners sell the ability to do this. Mostly (though not entirely or always) they rely on having been really good at it themselves. Idea is they can supervise others to do the same. This is false. Associates who hang around are very smart researchers, analyzers and writers and/or they work like horses trying to die as fast as possible. Other associates are instructed to seek other opportunities within a coupe years. Good partners make athlete money—rookie contracts most often, big stars in a very small number of cases. [/quote]
