the other way round you mean? Eversheds is a silver circle firm and has had an office in Singapore since the 90s.

Maybe not elite MC level prestige, but since most local firms are desperate to latch onto any sliver of prestige afforded by tying up with an int'l firm, surely that must have some effect.

I've seen so many misguided or clueless junior assocs or trainess-to-be beam with pride when they say they're in or going to some JLV/FLA tie-up. They don't know ****, because local firm is local firm and you can't put lipstick on a pig.
