[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]. And it’s extremely common now to see government line attorneys 8–10 years out of law school lateral to firms as partners. [/quote] Extremely common? Not in my specialty, anyway. Gov lawyer here, and I've only seen it happen once -- and that was because the line attorney was part of a package deal; he was the service partner who did the work for his bff -- a huge name who brought in clients like a magnet and did little work beyond signing his highly recognizable name on pleadings. Other gov lawyers did leave for firms where they were given the title of partner, but not BigLaw; more like little regional firms you have never heard of, where there are 3-6 partners and you only eat what you kill.
