Litigation adds extra steps (as compared to a corporate practice) if you want to go in-house. Only stick with litigation if you want to continue litigation. The end goal is obviously higher value and higher profile disputes cases, becoming known in the market as a star litigator, and possibly eventually Senior Counsel (1 in a 1000 odds maybe?) or Supreme Court Judicial Officer (1 in 10,000 maybe). This lack of exit options is particularly acute for general commercial litigation. Even if you're working in a top tier liti/arbi team, the reward of being the top dog here, is simply more litigation. Ironically, it is the specialist-focused disputes teams (i.e. the ones that service a particular industry & don't routinely take on the highest profile commercial disputes) that have better in-house options, because such litigators transition naturally to an in-house role in that particular industry. What I'm talking about are insurance, marine, restructuring & insolvency, criminal (defence & prosecution), employment and intellectual property etc. Specialist litigators in these areas are routinely hired by ex-clients and players in these industries. |

Unregistered | Liti go in-house not that easy. Just pop into mycareersfuture and check the req for in-house jobs. Very rarely they’re looking for no corporate background. | |

Unregistered | Usual market movement it seems. But Rodyk seems to be attracting some high profile moves of late. Wonder if it’s in expansion mode | |

No point hanging out with the bean counters. Commoditized work and bespoke work like law, don't mix |
