Radio Silence After Lateral Acceptance
Hey guys, kind of panicking. Accepted lateral offer (corporate associate at biglaw firm) a few weeks ago and submitted conflicts. Lateral firm called me to get more info on deals where they were on the other side. Haven't heard since. Should I assume there's a conflicts problem and if so, will they contact my clients to get waivers? Not thrilled about the fact that the client will tell my partners before I get the chance to give notice.

Why don’t you just follow up with them and ask whether there were any issues?Anonymous User wrote:Hey guys, kind of panicking.

You can freely engage with the people in the conflicts department/HR about on boarding issues. Its on you to push the process along.
