    You were destined to be a storyteller. I have yet to meet a UA-camr who can put together a video with such depth and clarity for an explanation of a complicated topic.

    As an M&A lawyer… this is really accurate👌🏻 - and I also like to think that corporate lawyers work to build something thats wanted by all parties instead of fighting for a result thats not wanted by anybody;)

    Thank you for making this!! Does corporate law also include opportunities for pro bono work, as litigation does?

    • @sharonhuberfeld3459
      @sharonhuberfeld3459 Рік тому +2

      It definitely depends on the law firm. I am a corporate lawyer at a large firm, and I've done both corporate (forming companies, giving presentations on corporate issues and even a marger) as well as litigation-oriented (asylum) pro bono projects.

    • @aalegalfocus
      @aalegalfocus Рік тому +1

      Agreed that it depends on the firm. Generally attorneys are there to bill those hours for the firm though.

    Hey Cece you're KILLING it with this video format but for the sake of variety i think it'd be great if you could include some video clips of the examples that you're speaking about. This way the video doesn't come across as a lecture more than a fun informative video. Crazy thumbnail btw 😁

    Thanks for the overview! I once was an aspiring JD/MBA candidate but someone got in my ear and talked me out of it. I ended up getting a Duke MBA but graduated during the recession so my IB dreams didn't work out. Sometimes I get the itch to learn more about legal though. Great content!

    This was a great video! I worked in corporate law previously and I like to think that the work feels like a giant group project the night before it’s due except it feels that way every day. Additionally, the client service aspect of corporate means that we are very close with clients and their clients too!

    In 2L right now and feel the exact way about Lit being grating and anxiety-inducing. Nevertheless, there’s something about investigations that come with being a litigator that I enjoy. How/why did you choose lit despite your reservations about it?

    Great bird’s eye view explanation. I’ve always wanted to know the nuts and bolts of what M&A attorneys do, this vid clarified it, thanks!
    Follow up question tho: do these attorneys have access to proprietary/special tools or software thats aids or accelerate researching during the due diligence phase? I’d imagine gathering all that data would be extraordinarily tedious without access to certain tools that streamline the research. Surely you can’t just google all the info you need..?

      How should one understand your strange comment? Are you trying to complement or degrade her? If you have constructive criticism about the points she's making, respectfully share them. If you disagree with her completely or dislike her appearance, don't watch her content. But to imply that she's not worthy of love - because that's what your comment seems to be getting at - is beyond the pale
