To be fair, they're a top law firm having clients like PFizer who get hundreds of lawsuits at a time. When you're that busy, you probably just want a lawyer and don't care about what's happening in the firm
@@spectralbrickz I know and I don't complain. Just pointed out that there is no point picking one unrealistic thing (name changes) when the entire show as just tons of egomaniacs fighting each other, trying to undermine each other's firms, having some kind of superpowers of being able to tell their clients what to do and rarely doing any actual legal work. Don't get me wrong... I love this show! It's just worth pointing out that it's just as realistic as Spiderman is xD
I know the show wanted us to believe they were the most powerful prestigious law firm in New York but with all those name changes, there’s no doubt in real life that’d be a sign of weakness & instability. If I was rich I wouldn’t want my money going into that firm😬🥴
Shoooot,….with all the backstabbing going on there? I KNOW my money would be safe. They’d cut each others throats to prove they’re better lawyers while winning every case. They might cause me to end up doing time, but I’d be better off when I got out of the pen. 😂😂😂
Actually it's how well known the Lawyer is. Lawyers do bounce as partners to different companies. Some names could make the company look better. Just like a sports team
It's funny that the characters actually comment on how often the firm changes its name, and in the series finale Louis places an embargo on changing the name for the next five years.
I like how the series starts with Louis Litt wanting to be a partner at the firm and ends with him being a name partner and that too starting with his last name :- Litt Wheeler Williams Bennett. A true ending !
Because it was too early for Mike to be a name partner but later on he ran his own firm in Seattle with Harvey so maybe that firm was called Specter Ross. Mike wanted to help people.
People say that a serious law firm wouldn't survive so many name changes but considering what these jokers are up to over the course of the series, they wouldn'y have any credibility to lose anyway.
Last 2 season should not be canon or exist. That shit was just dumb at that point. Why even change the name and have all this drama. Money. I know. But still, have some integrity.
I like to believe that even Gordan Schmidt Van Dyke wasn't the original, long before Pearson and Hardman came along, Gordan, Schmidt and Van Dyke found some dirt on previous name partners and that kept happening for a very long time
Arthur reeves was the founder of the firm , and I would have guessed it started with Reeves LLP or simply Reeves, then when Stanley Gordon and his other partners found dirt on Arthur reeves. He disbarred him and took the firm and renamed the firm to Gordon Schmidt Van Dyke.
Missing two names: Pearson Specter (between time Darby was removed and Litt was added) and Specter Litt (between time Pearson was removed and Zane was added).
1:30 was so tagged on. Imagine working for YEARS as a top-notch lawyer and then 2 "younglings" get name partner after like 1-2 years. Also imagine going to clients and having to say: "Hi, I'm John Johnson and I work for Zane Specter Litt Wheeler Williams". Does NOT go off the tongue easily.
ZSLWW doesnt go to easy either. tbh the whole later seasons felt a bit weird, i get that they tried to raise the stakes and make it interesting again but it was convoluted as hell and the payoff was not worth the effort it took to keep up with it. @@INVINCIBLE-qs7no
Uh, what? Alex and Samantha have been working for over a decade too, what are you even talking about? Also firms with longer names usually either use abbreviations or just the first two names, not really a big deal
@@Tom_Stevens617 For over a decade - wow. Others worked for decadeS. But in the firm they were for about a year or so. Remember when Namepartner used to be a big deal (only Harvey as an exceotional lawyer) in earlier seasons and was like a last resort to save a firl (Darby)? Later they gave it out for solid work (Wheeler Whittaker). Specter Litt Wheeler Whittaker. Even in short version it sounds hard I work for "Es - el - double u - double u"
I think the show at the end saw all the feedback about the name changes, and even had the last partners sign a new agreement to not change the name for 5 years.
I'm not a US lawyer but where I live the name basically never changes. Name partners=founding partners and that's it unless you merge with another law firm the name stays the same
All the firm names, in chronological order: Gordon Schmidt Van Dyke Pearson Hardman Pearson Pearson Darby Pearson Darby Specter Pearson Specter (not shown in the video) Pearson Specter Litt Specter Litt (not shown in the video; shows the scene where it's announced Pearson is removed but doesn't show the sign on the wall) Zane Specter Litt Zane Specter Litt Wheeler Williams Specter Litt Williams (not in the video but very brief, was not even shown in the show itself as Wheeler was brought back quickly) Specter Litt Wheeler Williams Litt Wheeler Williams Bennett
2 names sounds good and professional. I guess 3 names still acceptable. But anymore than that is just absurd. For public, it doesn't sound and look 'executive' appealing.

Tbh it doesn’t matter if the whole law firm hates one another as long as the lawyers handling your business are good no one gives a shit
Phantoooooommmm Regiment!
I'd want one without so many disbarments
tbh Pearson Hardman sounded most iconic
Yeah, Like Lockheed Martin
I liked Pearson Specter the most, but specter is just a cool ass word
I like Pearson Specter Litt
At least we can agree it wasn’t the same without the Pearson

Zane Specter Litt Wheeler Williams is such a mouthful to say
Way too much
The most unrealistic part of this series was the fact they changed the name of the law firm so much.
Agreed
Tbh the only realistic part of this show were lawyers working long hours. Everything else is just an entertainment BS ;)

Until season 5 it was, after that it shrunk
Luis reaction for harvey becoming a name partner was hilarious
No real firm would survive this many name changes, they'd lose all credibility. Still liked the show!
Forget about credibility, people would forget who the hell they are.
@@thechosenone1533 that‘s true
This show was made for interesting storylines and not credibility. It is not a documentary.
pearson is the one name that carried the firm
I agree, it bothered me that they were more shaken and heartbroken by taking down Robert's name than Pearson's.
It started as a firm name, then turned into slapping every character's name on the wall. This is why the Sith have the rule of two
I did not expect to see a Star Wars reference in this comment section, but sir you win!
Their attorney-to-name-parter ratio must've been lit af by S9
I think you mean Litt af 😜
It's funny that the characters actually comment on how often the firm changes its name, and in the series finale Louis places an embargo on changing the name for the next five years.
The fact that Mike Ross didnt make a partner being the main protagonist its like Naruto didnt make into Hokage
0:40 best reaction 🤣🤣
I like how the series starts with Louis Litt wanting to be a partner at the firm and ends with him being a name partner and that too starting with his last name :- Litt Wheeler Williams Bennett. A true ending !
Pearson Specter sounded best to me Pearson Hardman was good as well. I think once you get past 2 names it just sounds like a list
Too bad we never got. Specter Ross litt
But at Seattle we got Specter Ross Zane

SPECTER LITT is my favourite. It really Litts up the atmosphere
1:22 I love these two 😂
I am still mad Mike’s name never ended up on that wall. In my mind the firms name is Specter Ross.
Because it was too early for Mike to be a name partner but later on he ran his own firm in Seattle with Harvey so maybe that firm was called Specter Ross. Mike wanted to help people.
@@klaudiagrobactually if mike and rachel didn't leave the show their name is more deserving than the last ones
Exactly. 7 to 8 years of practice isn't enough time to become named partner@@klaudiagrob

All I'm thinking is that there would be alot of holes in that wall.....
Game of Names😂
That's good one
Pearson Hardman was the best sounding name IMO
´´i need a day´´🤣
“I need a day”😂😂😂
Mike deserved it more than anyone else
The way Louis just backed up into the elevator 😂😂😂
We don't even get that many name change options in a video game 😅
My favorite was ✨Pearson Specter Litt✨
So many Notices of Change of Firm name documents to be filed. 😭😂
The wheeler williams part was so unnecessary. Even zane was just pushing the drama at this point.
Last 2 season should not be canon or exist. That shit was just dumb at that point. Why even change the name and have all this drama. Money. I know. But still, have some integrity.
Season 12 -

In honesty the only names i respected were pearson hardman pearson specter pearson specter litt and specter litt
I like to believe that even Gordan Schmidt Van Dyke wasn't the original, long before Pearson and Hardman came along, Gordan, Schmidt and Van Dyke found some dirt on previous name partners and that kept happening for a very long time
well it started with the founders name, cant remember exactly what it was, then it was gordan schmidt van dyke

I work for "Es - el - double u - double u"
It should have ended Specter-Litt-Ross.
The real name is Litt and Partners 😉
From "Pearson Hardman", to "Litt Wheeler Williams Bennett"... Damn, the firm really has changed more names than Prince.
Change the name of the show to "lets see how many names can go on this fuckin wall."
I know it got an inside joke later on but come on. 5 names is just ridiculous.
As someone who only watched to like season 4 years ago, I guess I just let myself get spoilered pretty badly if I ever pick the show back up again…
Specter Ross was the only name it mattered
I think the show at the end saw all the feedback about the name changes, and even had the last partners sign a new agreement to not change the name for 5 years.
Just think how much stationary they're probably throwing away each year.
I expected Mike Ross to be a partner by the end atleast.
had the audacity omg
I swear it felt like they changed names every 6 months
The number of holes in that goddamn woodboard
I wish Specter Litt was around for longer.
I'm not a US lawyer but where I live the name basically never changes. Name partners=founding partners and that's it unless you merge with another law firm the name stays the same
IRL the name of the firm stays even after the partner leaving as the name becomes a brand. They literally sold named Partner like candies by the end.
Only time the name changed and everyone was happy is when Katrina made name partner
Was there never a pearson specter moment?
there was
Whoops my bad
Did it ever show Specter Litt on the wall after Pearson was removed?
@@realmdarkness no
@@realmdarknessyes.
It would have been great to see Specter Ross
Just like Pearson Specter was great
Zane Specter Litt Wheeler Williams lmao who the hell thought that would be a good idea
I am only on season 4 and I don't know why I watched this video.
HMMMMM. I NEED THE DAY
Must spend a fortune on business cards
Omg specter comes off the wall omg.
Jessica leaving was the worst thing ever, Specter Litt just felt empty
Hi, I’m looking for a lawyer from Pearson Specter. What do you mean this isn’t Pearson Specter? I must have the wrong number goodbye.
I wished to see the wall saying
"Ross Bennete Zane" but unfortunately it didn’t happened.
as someone who hasn't seen the series this is so fucking funny
Honestly i would wanna work for Pearson Hardman
In my opnion having more then 3 names for a law firm becomes something of a Mouth Full
All the firm names, in chronological order:
Gordon Schmidt Van Dyke
Pearson Hardman
Pearson
Pearson Darby
Pearson Darby Specter
Pearson Specter (not shown in the video)
Pearson Specter Litt
Specter Litt (not shown in the video; shows the scene where it's announced Pearson is removed but doesn't show the sign on the wall)
Zane Specter Litt
Zane Specter Litt Wheeler Williams
Specter Litt Williams (not in the video but very brief, was not even shown in the show itself as Wheeler was brought back quickly)
Specter Litt Wheeler Williams
Litt Wheeler Williams Bennett
"pearson..... doesnt have the same ring" *the spinoff show*: :l
Pearson Specter Litt Ross
You missed Specter Litt Wheeler and Litt Wheeler Williams Bennet
Starting at season 6, everything was just a complete mess
Season 8 with not 3 but 5 names on the door 😅 now that was peak
After Pearson Darby Specter it was just Pearson Specter and then Pearson Specter Litt😬
I forgot there was a Darby
You missed the time when wheeler got fired and name was specter lill williams
She wasn't name partner at the time though
@@mikhailhussain1255she was
Little Wheeler Williams Bennet was the final name actually?😊
wasn’t it pearson darby specter? pearson specter?
How do they attach those letters? There never seem to be marks left behind.
They make news ones after the other
It should have ended as Specter Litt Ross
And this happened in the span of... a year? They definitely love drama
Typically in TV, one season constitutes 1 year unless told otherwise.
2 names sounds good and professional. I guess 3 names still acceptable. But anymore than that is just absurd. For public, it doesn't sound and look 'executive' appealing.
The whole name change sequence ruined the show
They should’ve ended the show by season 6 that’d give it more realism and legacy
Should've ended Litt Specter Ross.
Removal of Pearson hurt 💔. By the way how can someone change brand name so many times its the most important thing for a brand
During this time of year I have been able and
comical
🥰🥰
Louis never should've been made partner ever
what did jessica do ?
IS THAT IZZY???
This firm changes names more rapidly than the alphabet people community.
1:34 honestly worst part of the show it was ridiculous
never finished the show, what happened to Harvey? why wasn't his name up there any more?
He left with Donna to go work with Mike and Rachel in Seattle
They basically ruined Harvey's characters
This was a bogus show. I regret watching it.
Lets be honest. Great show very entertaining. But any firm that changes names that often in real life could NEVER be trusted for anything lol.
