Can you do a video about how to write a diversity statement for diversity programs?

Very good channel ❤ thanks

thanks very much for this video. I'm an Australian and hope to transfer from Aus Biglaw (HSF/KWM/Allens) to US Biglaw after a few years. I just have one question - how far down the ladder will I be knocked down in terms of Cravath? For example - if I'm a 4th year lawyer in ECM or M&A at a top law firm such as HSF over here, and transition to any of the cravath scale biglaw firms in the US, will I be knocked down to 1st, 3rd, or stay at 4th? Thanks for your time.

Another great webinar! Thank you

There is the story of a lawyer who died at age 40. He came up to heaven and complained that he has a wife and children who need him back on earth. The angel replied: we looked at your billing records and according to that you are already 126 years old.

Great presentation. I wish I had this information when I was starting out. Harrison tells it like it is.

Less government or at least not so illegal czcams.com/video/KIP3gJrkWwY/video.htmlsi=Ccjong5Ajbti8WP5

Less government! czcams.com/video/KIP3gJrkWwY/video.htmlsi=Ccjong5Ajbti8WP5

Solid solid stuff! Keep up the great work.

Sorry you went to a doctor who graduated from Michigan law school? That might be the main reason things went wrong....

Great content. No one like you in our space. Keep it up! - DLM

Good stuff, HB! - DLM

Please put these on podcasts so we can listen anywhere

I find this very insightful! I think this applies to every job as well. On a different topic, how much do you know about the legal profession in Canada and the differences from US law firms. Not really sure what I am asking for, just any knowledge on Canadian law would be greatly appreciated. Considering this as a career in my country.

I asked a question and the algorithms lead me here!

Where can i get the schedule where you do these posts live? You are so knowledgeable and open with your views

This a great video by the way and you are absolutely right about most people gate keeping

Any suggestions for a SA position if you go to a lower ranked school?

So sorry about your dog

I like you content but it would help if you made some shorter videos.

This was great advice, thank you!

This is 10/10 advice. I’m in a rough spot right now, haven’t worked in 1.5 years because I had to spend that time taking care of my dad full time before he died. Working on back into the workforce right now and this is much needed, if very tough, advice (can’t use your firm since I only have close to 1 yr experience, and worse still I want to transition from transactional work to lit). Thank you for posting this and sharing this info for free. You’re changing and improving a lot of attorney’s lives

So helpful, thank you

“The thing I’m going to tell you about…they don’t have the quality I’ll tell you about…but you need the thing I’ll tell you about…” Why hide the ball? Frustrating and ineffective delivery of information.

suggest the ways to make judicial system efficient in a populous country like india i hv an assignment to compare the judicial system with America . How much technology should be used ?

Begins at 4:45 min

Watching your videos as a 1st year law student in New Zealand. Good stuff

The audio does not work for this webinar.

This is excellent

This is very helpful for me to understand of what happened in the office ( which is a big firm) thanks

This is an incredible insight. Thank you for talking about the "bad" things that law grads can do. This is really so useful. Thanks again.

💯

Thanks for telling us young lawyers exactly how it is.

Have no idea why I'm listening to this. With that said this was worded quite well

Again - thank you for these videos.

That's a lot of words to say that firms hire those they can more easily exploit.

So grateful to have stumbled across your channel at the beginning of my career. Thank you!

"Know what you want to do" is the same kind of useless advice as "love yourself." Gee, why haven't I thought of that. Let me flip that "know yourself" switch. So stupid of me not to have done it. Of course when someone is strongly motivated it makes things easier. A bigger problem - one that you don't solve and the one that really needs solving - is how to find out what would be the area of interest that would be worth it to get involved in and develop over the long run. Those who are lucky enough to discover it with their first job do better than those who don't.

you can never lie on your resume as much as employers lie on their job descriptions. which aren't usually even job descriptions, they are people descriptions.

Litigators are exceptionally well at drinking.

I couldn't agree more. If I wanted to work in a tax firm, and I could show A grades in Income Tax, Corporate Tax, Tax Procedure, and Estate/Gift Tax, would they really care that I scored a D in Civil Procedure?

Another question regarding international students: due to the increase in US tuitions, native born US citizens have been attending universities abroad, even well regarded universities (Oxford, LSE, Amsterdam, etc.) and earning law degrees there, including LLMs to qualify for Bars in the UK/EU, frequently in Law & Finance, International Taxation, International Trade and Investment Law, European Competition Law, etc. Is there a path for these students to return to the US, earn an LLM, sit for the Bar, and earn positions working in their respective specialties? After earning multiple LLMs, a much less specialized, three year long, JD doesn't fit their needs. Is there a path for these attorneys, and what becomes of them?

I appreciate your content

I'm trying to hire for my law firm right now. Very well said on the specialization point. A resume showing some sort of specialization helps for picturing a specific role for their skills, rather than trying to guess how they might perform as a generalist.

I wish he'd be available to review a resume. For someone who gets into the law field late in life it's especially difficult to put together a resume that wouldn't be full of irrelevant information from their past careers.

Love it that these videos aren't the usual CZcams 4-minute ADD-edited clips but real meaningful and informative dives into the subject matter

You mean, not a lot of "legal" immigration happening during covid.

But why is being in the background a good thing?

Great video. Super relevant information. I like the story at 1:24:10
