i don't want to do the standard big law thing. i hope for either a prestigious lit boutique or a top plaintiff side firm. |

Infrastructure sucks. Some bitch that they wish there was more organization and support. There is apparently one name partner who is a terror to work for and everyone hates, but the most of the other partners seem to be total sweethearts.
I tend to think that smaller offices are more humane for a number of reasons, but I may be wrong. |

2 - did you get a sense of bonus structure?
3 - did they tell you what salary trajectory is? ie, wtf do their 3rd, 5th, 7th years make, etc? |

I think Lieff is an interesting firm, and the people seemed great. I think someone upthread was also accurate - not having to bill by the hour probably leads to a better associate experience. With that said, I was worried that starting off plaintiff-side would be a career limiting move that I wasn't willing to make at that point. I think if you are interested in some of their core practices (esp antitrust or consumer protection) and are sure about being plaintiff side, it would be awesome to live in SF and work there. |

edit: also less of a reason to assign billable make-work because you are on contingency? |
