However, as a generally rule of thumb, I think it is a good idea to strengthen your answer by briefly connecting the development to how Skadden is positioned to help clients - as long as it feels natural and not forced.Your structure, therefore, sounds solid, and would look like:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Paragraph 1: Explain the development clearly (showing research and commercial awareness)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Paragraph 2: Discuss the impact on clients, and this is usually where you can add a line or two about which practice areas at Skadden would get involved (e.g. regulatory, disputes, transactions, finance, etc.).</li> </ol>This doesn't need to be a deep dive, but I do think it is advantageous to make that link - even if they haven't explicitly asked for it in the question. It's a good way of adding context, and showing commercial awareness of how a law firm adds value to their clients. I hope that assists! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
