Join us for an insightful event designed to help law students understand the key differences between high-end boutiques and general practice law firms. This event will provide you with valuable knowledge to make informed decisions about your legal career path and summer associate positions. Whether you’re drawn to the specialized expertise of a boutique firm or the broad range of services in general practice, this event will equip you with the knowledge to pursue a path that aligns with your professional aspirations.
What To Expect:
- Interactive Discussions: Engage in lively discussions about the culture, work-life balance, and specialization differences between these two types of firms. Attorneys from tech-focused boutiques will share their experiences, challenges, client types, and the unique opportunities each type of firm offers.
- Career Guidance: Gain practical advice on how to choose the right firm for your career goals, including tips on tailoring your resume and interview preparation.
- Networking Opportunities: Connect with practicing attorneys, fellow students, and potential mentors who can offer guidance and support as you navigate your legal career.
