Harrison Barnes' Legal Career Advice PodcastHarrison Barnes Legal Recruiter from BCG Attorney Search: How to Get a Job with a Major Law Firm if You Did Not Go to a Top Law School or Are Not Working at a Top Law FirmMany attorneys believe that the quality of their law school, or law firm, will determine the course of their legal career. I regularly place partners in their 70s, and many of the partners I have placed are now in their 80s and still practicing, with large books of business, at major law firms. If your entire career is determined by the quality of the law school you attended or the firm you started your career in, this would mean that what happens for the next 50 years of your career after you get out of law school would not matter.
