Greedy Trial Lawyer
I Would Rather Die Than Work At A Legal Boutique
Category: In Your Face
Why is it that defense firms are willing to be called trial boutiques? No self-respecting plaintiff's personal injury attorney would get up each morning, strap on his six-shooter and ride to his trial boutique.
Blawg's Blog has this post:
Small is the New Big...For Law
Larry Bodine smelled a "golden opportunity" for boutiques/smaller firms in his post a couple weeks back, Marketing Opportunity: Megafirms overpay $160,000 for First-year Associates:
"This creates a huge opportunity for mid-size and boutique law firms. Not only can they offer better rates but also more specialized expertise. Corporate Counsel are going to be looking for a 20-lawyer trial boutique in Minneapolis -- which does nothing but work in court-- as opposed to the litigation department of an expensive New York megafirm. Litigation accounts for 34% of overall corporate legal spending."
I know we will never see Gerry Spence's horse outside a boutique law firm - unless it would be while he was making a substantial withdrawal of compensation for an injured client.
