[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Market has changed....watch it you maybe be replaced by a more experienced person at lower pay....the supply of lawyers wanting to go in house is very high.[/quote] But the skills to do it well are hard to find. It isn't just about being a great lawyer (although that's important). It's also about being a strong leader/manager and a pragmatic business person. I've hired 3 other in-house lawyers for our company and, trust me, it is NOT about finding a lawyer who wants "out" of a law firm. It is hard to find a great in-house lawyer. That is why companies poach each other's in-house pros rather than hiring directly from firms. If you are a company with a great in-house lawyer, you pay to keep them. Hiring a cheaper lawyer just isn't good business and successful companies know that.[/quote]
