For M&A, WongP is a good choice, but firm second to A&G. R&T is also okay but behind WongP. Drew is meh. SLB is okay too. For the rest... YMMV.

How is WongP second?

What are the rankings?

“Corp commercial” covers many different practice areas (e.g. projects, IP, TMT, etc.), so you’re going to have to be more specific. Don’t think there are rankings for “corp commercial”…

A&G’s various teams (including its M&A team) handles general corporate matters. This is probably the case for other B4 firms too.

Your questions suggest that you’re a young lawyer or a law student…

I am new to this, sorry about that. So to summarise, just go A&G for a great career in Corp.

Would that be correct?

Yeah heard the same. Don’t think the rankings are meaningful in any way, just go anywhere you vibe with.

Let’s just say A&G corp is like, a big fish in a small pond. Nowadays it’s a training pool for larger, more well-known international firms - lots of people go into A&G with a plan to stay for no longer than 2-3 years, and move to a better firm that pays more.
