[QUOTE="Numerius Negidius, post: 48548, member: 7019"] Hi LM, Thank you for your insightful replies to everyone's questions above! Here are my questions: 1. Do you find that the number of hours you work in actuality is lower, similar, or higher than your billable hours target (if you have one)? 2. You mentioned above that during your secondment, you primarily practiced US law. Did you have to become NY qualified before going on secondment? Were there any challenges adapting to their legal system or familiarizing yourself with New York laws? Did you do anything to prepare before you began your secondment? 3. Are NY secondments competitive at US firms? 4. What are the prospects of a US firm NQ or 2-3PQE transferring to a US office? If it is difficult, is the main challenge immigration restrictions, them preferring US-educated candidates, or competition, etc? Thanks for your time! [/QUOTE]
