You can always try, but the amount of ppl who can internally transfer is low. If you're a good worker, your boss will want to keep you in their dept. They'll only recommend you if you're (a) a problem worker, or (b) on very good terms with them and have expressed strong interest in the other field (which then begs the question what you're doing at their dept at all).

Most people take the opportunity to jump out to a diff firm, fresh start fresh firm, instead of begging for a chance to change (and hoping you catch your bosses at a time where there is an oversupply in your dept, combined with a demand for NQ or inexperienced lawyers in another dept.
