Starting Strong: Tips for New Lawyers from Those Who Have Been There
Heading back to the office this fall? Whether you're a fresh-faced law student or a new associate, this episode is for you.
Mike and Darlene crack open the memory vault to share the best advice they received as junior lawyers — the kind that helped them survive (and thrive) in both in-house roles and private practice. They also tap into the wisdom of the wider Inter Alia crew and a few in-house friends to round out the insights.
If you're looking for real talk, practical tips, and a few laughs along the way, hit play. This episode is all about helping you build a career in law that works for you — not the other way around.
