Best Experience at the Firm
"Every day at the Firm offers a new experience. There hasn't been a day recently when I haven't found something to enjoy, someone to order around, some corner of my office to plant my seed."

Worst Experience at the Firm
"The assigned parking spaces are a little narrow. I wish they were slightly wider."

Advice to Law Students
"Law students need to commit to life at the Firm. It can be a rewarding lifestyle, but only if you make the sacrifices necessary, give up the other aspects of your life, and make that pledge to do the best you can for your clients, your bank account, and the Firm. Like Gandhi, there are sacrifices every young lawyer needs to make."
