What about hours? I’m a 4th year in a Delaware corporate / securities focused lit group annualizing 2700 hours. I would make the jump to one of our plaintiff counterparts if I could expect to work about 1000 fewer hours.
Are you based in NYC?
Yep.

I had a friend who worked at a plaintiff side firm on the east coast. Mid-levels with your experience are valuable to those shops who do securities. I seriously doubt you'll be able to swing 1700 hours anywhere. But possibly sub/around 2000.

I'll add Selendy, Kaplan, and McKool to this list for NYC (all three pay market or above and have considerable plaintiff litigation opportunities, although they all do both P and D-side lit)

Would probably add MoloLamken and Hueston Hennigan too.
