JD Journal Pepsi off the (1.2 Billion Dollar) Hook
Dated: 11-07-2009

At the end of last month I blogged about a legal comedy of errors that ended with a default judgement being entered against softdrink maker PepsiCo. If you somehow missed the original story, our take on it can be found here. If any of you own shares in Pepsi, you can breathe easier… for [...] Related posts:

Cleary Gottlieb Follows Cravath on Bonuses
Dated: 11-06-2009

Cleary Gottlieb Gottlieb has confirmed their bonus schedule for this year, which falls right in line with Cravath. Cravath was the first major law firm to announce its year end bonuses. The bar was set so low by Cravath that it’s no great feat for other firms to meet it. Gottlieb Like Cravath, bonuses [...] Related posts:

A five person environmental law practice group has moved from Ballard Spahr to Greeberg Traurig in Philladelphia. The Philladelphia office, which opened in 1997, now has fifteen attorneys that once practiced at Ballard Spahr.

Is the market improving? And when is a good time to speak with a recruiter?
Dated: 10-21-2009

The market is very slowly improving. When we start receiving job orders from law firms for associates in certain practice areas we generally take that as a good sign. These practice areas include corporate, trademark, and tax. We first see the changes in the East Coast, and then it spreads throughout the [...] Related posts:

Litigators See Light
Dated: 10-16-2009

A couple of months ago, I suggested that the recession ’skipped’ over the litigation uptick that usually occurs as more transactional practices struggle. The American Lawyer confirms that 2009 did not provide the wealth of litigation work that we expected to see. http://amlawdaily.typepad.com/amlawdaily/2009/10/new-litigation-trends.html Citing Fulbright & Jaworski’s litigation trend report, the American Lawyer notes that the [...] Related posts:

Extreme Interviewing?
Dated: 10-07-2009

There’s setting yourself apart, and then there’s stalking. CNN is running an interesting story about the difference between a memorable candidate and a menacing one: http://www.cnn.com/2009/LIVING/worklife/10/05/cb.out.of.box.tactics/index.html Of course, the law firm world isn’t necessarily quite so creative–I’m not sure I’d recommend to any of my candidates that they show up for an interview with musical accompaniment.

Avoid Creating “Fatal Friction”
Harrison Barnes  |  Dated: 11-07-2009

The worst thing you can ever do in a professional relationship—and in a personal relationship, for that matter, is introduce what I call “fatal friction”. I have seen more careers stalled, held back and even ruined by fatal friction than I can count. In addition, people create all sorts of social problems for [...] Related posts:
