I have quite a few listeners who are in big law as junior associates thinking a lot about whether they should lateral and if so, what exactly that looks like. Often they languish in so many questions and thoughts about what the “right” answer is, and today we dispel all kinds of notions around how hard it is to lateral. In this episode with Summer Eberhard, partner at Major, Lindsey, and Africa, Summer talks about what to look out for when lateraling successfully, how to make it easy without making it additional work, and how recruiters can make the process much less burdensome. It really is a gamechanger for those who are thinking about lateraling in big law, and even if you are not in big law, Summer shares how you can still ask for help and guidance to move the needle.  Connect with Summer on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/summereberhard/

Lateraling in BigLaw made easy with Summer Eberhard

In Non-Compliant Episode 38, Host Jay Edelson, nationally recognized plaintiff’s attorney and Founder of Edelson PC, is joined by Summer Eberhard, a Managing Director in Major, Lindsey &amp; Africa’s Associate Practice Group, and Kelsey McCann, Edelson PC’s Chief of Staff and Director of Recruiting. To start the show, Jay, Summer, and Kelsey discuss the recent shift in legal recruitment. While BigLaw was once the clear choice for law students and laterals, candidates are considering more than Vault rankings when applying to jobs. Instead of wanting to know about a firm's pro bono practice, candidates are talking to employers about how they reacted to the COVID-19 pandemic (8:30), their views on flexible work arrangements (13:45), and what diversity initiatives they have in place (20:42).Later in the show, Summer and Kelsey give listeners advice for navigating the legal job market, including what questions to ask potential employers (35:31).
