WHAT'S WORSE THAN BEING A BIGLAW ASSOCIATE? Being a biglaw partner:

Unhappy with what they perceive as corporate bureaucracy, impersonal treatment and fewer chances for career growth, some partners are defecting from big-box firms and heading for smaller practices, where, they say, they have more input and opportunities.

I like your site. Clean and easily read.

Well I left Ohio's biggest and lowest-paying Law Firm (the Attorney General's Office) and did then proceed down a most interesting path. You can watch a short (and later, a much longer) movie about it, in fact:

My name is Christopher King. I know ignorance, bigotry, racism, sexism and just plain corporate and judicial hatred all too well.

My experiences in Columbus, Ohio as a Civil Rights lawyer and as a contracts manager working for Boston’s American Tower Corporation – a company fined $300,000.00 by the Department of Labor for overtime violations at my behest – are chronicled in a 15-minute movie on my website, soon to be developed in Hollywood.

Now American Tower has just bought SpectraSite for $3.1B to consolidate their communications power over Americans. After you watch the video, you will be very wary of that encroachment.
