Nainamma.. pls pick some more good partners..make a grand statement on LI & B&B and then make them also go away after 6 months. In those 6 months we will meet all the clients of those partners and try and take them away from those partners.

K Law is truly a 'quicksand'. I do not know how they have so many mandates considering that they are unable to retain mid to senior-level lawyers.. The only explanation I can give is a 'honeytrap' BD strategy, strong PR skills and cut-throat rates.. I just wish lawyers and clients alike, see the duplicity inherent to this law firm!
