Innovative Lawyers: You're Invited To A Night With NYC's Premier Start-Up GCs
You are invited to a riveting panel and networking event on life as a start-up GC. Get the details here!
Transitioning in-house is something many (if not most) firm lawyers find themselves considering at some point. For many, it’s the first step in their career that isn’t simply a function of picking the best option available based on a ranking system.
Unknown territory feels high-risk, and can have the effect of steering many of us towards the well-greased channels into large, established companies.
For those who may be open to something more entrepreneurial, there is far less information available. No recruiter is calling every week with offers and details.

What does it mean to be lawyer at a start-up, versus in-house generally? It requires hybrid thinking. All legal issues (many of which are outside your area of expertise) are now your domain. Business issues are no longer exclusively someone else’s territory.
