They probably feel she's out to con a poor old man into hiring someone who has competencies in the wrong field. Poor old man may have to divorce his wife if caught.

I'm sure there are "professionals" out there who are more competent in said field of "charming" and would cost the team and company less money.

This phenomenon is rampant.

Poor old man will say person X fits the team because person X is a "good fit"

R&T disputes is very solid. How are they a lesser firm? In fact one of their partners recently moved (i suspect poached) to an international firm - another testament to their firms ability.

Also, whats with the bashing of chinatown firms? Get a life guys and stop comparing and worse putting others down. Whats the point in that?

Oh my, who hurt you so bad, my child? :D

This SIM dog needs to get off the lawyer salary forum & go back to being abused in the SIM UOL forum.

The only time he will step into the offices of a WongP or D&N is on a grab delivery order lmao 😂😂😂 Literal universes a part :D

You're only at the beginning of a potentially long journey. Don't lose the forest for the trees.

Yeah that also applies to the batch of associates that were recent made up to senior associates. Not sure how firms are going to sustain that many SAs who would have no capability to make partnership
