[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am curious why there is so much pressure in biglaw when the stakes are only money. As opposed to other types of law like criminal defense, immigration, when it's actual people's lives?[/quote] OP - I would say people's livelihoods are at stake in a lot of the matters DH deals with. He does a lot of mergers and acquisitions and also large government contracts work. If something goes wrong a plant will get shut down or a company will not get funding and then people will get laid off. Stuff like that. But obviously it is not life or death (directly). [/quote]
