[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How prestigious is Big Law in DC? In the Bay Area, it was viewed as a very good but second tier job type for the area. I think a higher-stress orthodontist might be the best comparison. There were a couple of exceptions based on particular firms but it wasn't going to impress many people at a cocktail party (and you were rarely going to be close to the wealthiest or highest income in the room as an attorney).[/quote] It's much more prestigious here because it's more important to the DC economy. In SF it's all about founders. In DC it's all about powerful political access. Which biglaw lawyers often have. [/quote]
