Subject: [Info] A message from Councilman Wolfson
To: boyd listserve
[I forward the message below at the request of Las Vegas City Councilman Steve Wolfson, who, as some of you know, also is a former federal and state prosecutor who now has a criminal defense practice. The Councilman is looking to address a critical need for school crossing guards in our city and seeks our assistance . . .]
-----
Forwarded by UNLV on 04/16/2008 01:52 PM -----
Dean ******:It was great meeting with you last week. We appreciate your time. Councilman Wolfson would like to encourage any William S. Boyd School of Law student interested in earning a few extra dollars, and helping our community, to consider applying to be a school crossing guard, through Metro's Crossing Guard program.There is a great need for crossing guards at the intersections of Maryland Parkway and Twain and at Twain and Swenson. The pay is $8.91 per hour and they are guaranteed 2.5 hours per day (just a little over $22 per day) . . .
Sincerely, ****** ***** Liaison to Councilman Steve Wolfson

At one point, when I was in love with the idea of living in Las Vegas, I considered applying to UNLV. I assume I would have earned a significant scholarship... wonder how that would have turned out...

There are a few firms in the $120-$140 range for 2,000 billables but they are generally small (i.e., 10 total attorneys) outposts of regional firms. The firms that do the most hiring (classes of 4-5 SAs) are in the $100 - $120 range for 1850 hours.
If memory serves, roughly 10-15 get jobs through OCI (in a class of 100). There are also a lot of 2-5 man shops in town which I have to imagine the top 5 person referenced earlier ended up.

snell, lewis, lionel sawyer, kkbr and a few others will probably have 3 - 5/year.
The ones you mentioned will have 1 -2.

According to NALP, for 2008:
Snell: 2 summers, 4 first year assoc. starting $110k, 2000 hrs.
Lewis & Roca (I'm assuming this is who you meant): oddly, not on NALP.
Lionel Sawyer: no employment numbers listed. starting $110k, 1800 hrs.
KKBR: also no employment numbers listed. starting at $95k, 1900 hrs. only pay summers $1650.
Jones Vargas: 6 summers, 2 first year associates (that's no good, and has been consistent for the past three years). $102k starting. 1850 hrs.
Ballard: 2 summers and 1-2 first year associates. start at $133k. 1950 hrs.
Holland Hart: 2 summers, 1 associate and 3 laterals (looks like they're growing this office). start at $120k, 1800 hrs.
no one else has summer info or first year numbers listed (or only 1 in either category), so i assume opportunities are limited.

how is it now though? i know money is still flowing into vegas (despite the residential real estate drop).
edit: see, e.g., dubai's sovereign wealth fund's $5 bil. investment in city center.

this is not that bad. i get emails all the time for community involvement volunteer opportunities (never for school crossing guards though). at least these clowns are getting some scratch on the side.

your link does not work. however, mine does:

By USNews standards, there is no tier 2. It goes straight from tier 1 to 3. This is absurd.

Depends on what you mean. In NV, "gaming" law means regulatory where Brownstein and Lionel Sawyer do the bulk of the work.
For the non-regulatory work, no one really owns that market. It's pretty spread out. A couple of boutiques do specialized work with lots of gaming clients like GT and its IP practice and Kamer which does a lot of employment stuff.

Serious question: How hard to crack one of the better paying LV jobs from a T10 school?
I, like a poster before me, was once enthralled with the idea of living in Vegas. I've only visited a few times and have otherwise no connections, but think it would be pretty sweet to make $150k and get really good at poker.

That poster was me. From what I can tell, the best Vegas jobs are satellite offices from LA (and a few national firms). To get one of these, you need a great resume and legit Vegas connections.
I'm no longer planning on Vegas (but I'll be there 3x a year for the rest of my life if I'm lucky), but it would be quite the life.
EDIT: It basically the same as trying to get a job in any of the other sweet secondary cities with smaller legal markets... places like Philadelphia, Austin, Seattle, Madison, etc.

Yeah, that's where I stay. Fucking LOVE that place, especially the Ferrari/Maserati dealership on premises and the shopping.
I know it would be more fun to go all out, but it would be pretty badass to leave work and hit the tables for a bit with free drinks to unwind.

lulz. Exactly. I don't go unless I have money to lose, otherwise it's pretty stressful.
Then you can start playing $25 and $50 minimums on blackjack and not giving a fuck.

but on the strip there is world-class dining and entertainment. broadway shows come to vegas all the time, restaurants on par with nyc, dc, la (in fact, many of the same names). it is an ugly fucking desert though, compared to nice green places.
did he want small businesses ran by immigrants? corner delis? shit like that? (serious q)
edit: and with all the high-rises, it's starting to look like a real city.

I think to a degree yes.
Again, I'm speaking for him, but there's something unbelievably (and in my opinion gloriously) fake about Las Vegas. And while there is incredibly fine everything on the strip, it is a gigantic hassle as a resident. Crazy traffic (literally) 24 hours a day just makes it less likely to make it worth dealing with everything that comes with going inside a casino.
Basically a lot of the the reasons why Vegas is such a great place to visit (the excess, the vices, the freedom, etc.) make it a less than ideal place to live.
We had a long discussion about this (over drinks at Ghost Bar looking out on the city) and I was pretty surprised, but it makes some sense when you think about Vegas as compared to NY, LA, Chicago, really anywhere other than Phoenix or Orlando.

Yeah, but it's not like you can do those things regularly without going bankrupt.
One of the biggest problems is that the city is soul-less. There is no civic pride. Every man to himself in the world's largest strip mall/Applebee's. It can get to you when your neighbors have absolutely no interest in talking to you or people think that big living is going to the Rio buffet or Chili's.

You'd definitely get an interview even with terrible grades but you'd really have to convince them that you aren't there to just party. They are very wary of those types.
Fwiw, No one pays $150. 1 place at $140 and a few in the $120-130 range. $100-$120 more realistic.

You guys missed out... the trick is to go to a place like UNLV for undergrad, go to a T6-T10 and then if you want to return you have connections and friends. I was able to land BIGLAW in a great city this way, though I ultimately rejected it.

it's a part time job for students. They're not asking people to work there full time once they graduate.
