Welcome

Quote
of
the
Day.
‘Biglaw’
isn’t
as
full
of
jackasses
as
I
was
led
to
believe
when
I
was
in
law
school.
Everyone
at
my
firm
has
been
very
open
and
welcoming.
I’ve
heard
horror
stories
about
certain
partners,
but
I’ve
been
fortunate
to
avoid
them.

A
midlevel
associate
at
an
undisclosed
firm,
in
response
to
a
question
found
in
the
American
Lawyer
Midlevel
Associates
Survey
about
what
most
surprised
them
about
working
at
their
current
firm.
