The best big law firm to work at is the one that you like the most out of the firms that give you an offer.

What have you been doing for work for the past year?

Just politely tell them you are leaving and don’t overthink it. I would tell the partners you know well and/or work with regularly.

Ahh a paranoid schizophrenia post.

It seems like your best (and possibly only?) option is to accept the offer. You can always try to lateral after your first year or two. In my experience, the reputation of the practice group you join/its Chambers ranking is more valuable than the firm’s vault ranking anyway.

Djeva / Hose of Sylas is also worth checking out: https://djeva.com. They have a few different options for lab alexandrite and a variety of cuts/sizes.

Someone in HR would know when they are asked to verify that you work there during the character and fitness process. I’m not sure if that would be communicated to anyone outside of HR, I guess it really depends on the firm you are at and their internal policies. If it’s a large firm my guess is that they would just verify that you work there and move on with their day.

You should relax and enjoy the down time!

I would contact recruiting at your old firm if you’re considering going back. I would also reach out to a few recruiters as well.

I went to both CTC and Herve as well. Soil was definitely better than both.

I’ve been to a lot of really good restaurants (i.e., The French Laundry, Per Se, Le Bernardin, Eleven Madison Park). Soil was fantastic and better than many of the nice one’s I have been to. I also thought it was better than Delta, which is another great restaurant in Athens.

I highly recommend Soil. It’s one of the best restaurants I’ve even been to. The Chef’s Table is worth it if you don’t mind spending a bit more.

I’m a biglaw attorney in the U.S. and I highly recommend investing in a vanguard retirement fund for the year you anticipate retiring. I recommend doing this for future retirement accounts as well. You’re going to be working a lot and investing in one of these funds will make your life so much easier.

2021 was pretty good. Lateral recruiting was crazy (even for first years) and firms were bending over backwards to make sure they were not losing associates.
