Firm Chairman Brad Karp was featured in a Q&A on Paul, Weiss’s General Commercial Litigation Practice in the 2023 edition of “Practice Perspectives: Vault’s Guide to Legal Practice Areas.” In the Q&A, Brad discusses his path to becoming litigators, examples of the types of cases he handles, and recommended training and development for those wishing to enter the practice.
“People join our litigation practice from all academic backgrounds, but a track record of academic excellence is a baseline for future success,” Brad says. “So much of what you learn in litigation is ‘on the job’ training, so I tell law students to seek out a firm like Paul, Weiss that offers the best training, professional skills development, and the chance to work with the world’s best, most talented trial lawyers.”
Brad also shares some unique aspects of practicing as a litigator at Paul, Weiss and what they like best about the practice area, among other topics.
Vault’s “Practice Perspectives,” which was released this month, offers insights from lawyers at top-ranked law firms on practicing law in more than 20 different practice areas.
