Every interesting or important issue is for “the business side.” And lawyers discuss the legal and business sides like two halves of the same coin even though everyone important ignores and disdains the deal lawyers.

Fighting like hell over remote risks and incredibly tangential issues seems like an awful way to make a living. that is all.

Have you considered injecting a little chaos into your otherwise dedicated and deliberate practice of the law in support of these transactions? For example, and this is not practice advice, creating a self-referencing clausal loop or generating an acrostic SOS message in the text of an indemnification clause or attaching the codes to the firm's SecureCore access floor in microscopic and highly kerned font in the footer of a rider?

I do lit but the principle stands. I started including little acrostics in discovery briefs. To my surprise, one day I got a response with I FEEL THE SAME WAY YOU DO, BUDDY spelled out acrostically. Naturally, I agitated to file many more discovery motions than strictly necessary that I might make bandinage with my unknown correspondent. We exchanged pleasantries, then personal details, and then intimacies - all through acrostic and simple cipher text buried in motions and briefs dotting the expansive docket of a pointless MDL. Still nerving up the courage to tell her I am married.

THis is a really incredible anecdote. ERring on the side of caution, I don't know if I would share all those details. ACtually, maybe I would. COuld you image the look on her face as she received the first brief? ON the real, I bet she was excited. SAme sort of feeling you would get from a passing caught glance of a beautiful woman in a cafe. REminds me of a time I had in Algiers--a story for another day.

STeering back to the original topic: it must have been a thrill for her. ALmost like the first glass of water after a long run. KIndermorgan used to have this attorney exchange program that we would participate in where we were doing legal service work. NGo-based, it allowed us to connect with other attorneys around the globe. MExican, italian, japanese, etc. BUrning man of the legal world sort of shit--wild artistic nights just rolling with each other, doing legal service work, vibing out to the sounds of the senior partners playing guitar and dancing. TTt grads and t14 grads coming together for some real authentic community work.

HErman newell ran the program since at least the 1970s, maybe earlier. REal pioneer in this genre of cross-firm collaboration in the service of a greater cause. IS it something I think about still from time to time--for sure. STarstruck doesn't begin to describe how I felt in the trenches with that group of pro bono motivated attorneys. ILluminating work performed in defense of the downtrodden and destitute--it was a calling card of the righteous soul. LHasa, in Tibet, was the site of the last conference that I was able to attend.

OP's post brought back this rush of memories for me--a very Proustian moment if you'll exchange a madeleine for some black and white digital print and a supporting slash and an iconic logo. ERrands to run, memos to write, machine parts to fabricate; I don't have a lot more time to continue this back-and-forth with you, enjoyable as it's been. ALl I hope you'll come away from this exchange with is an earnest appreciation that you aren't alone in this vast digital sea; there are others like you, suffering alongside with you, triumphing in your shadow and in the great garden of your mind. LYons, France is my destination. TO be totally hoenstly, I'm excited to be leaving here and arriving there. MEet me at the Cafe Arondister if you are ever in the area.

Cheers.

The day that you accept that your job is to be the bitch who papers the deal and not the dealmaker is liberating. The most insufferable corporate lawyers (after the kind who email a 40-person working group about typos) are the ones who think that they're making decisions. Occasionally you'll get the chance to state pros and cons of certain things to your client, along with what you feel is market and perhaps a recommendation.

Would have thought M&A was interesting. I did fund formation and that was pretty cool. Not super enjoyable but every now and then you'd come across some unique characters or some outlandish investment/fund idea.

Hav eyou thought about in-house? It's about as close to the business as you can get as a lawyer.

“Chancellor” at UT = top 2% of the graduating class at a top 15 law school (that’s statistically better than GULC/Cornell).

Not exactly a case of WUSTL hustlers changing their stars

They're bad. Japanese are worst.

The current deal team I'm working with at a major US bank is just as bad. It's absurd. Some of these older MDs are wildly incompetent and out of their depth.

Presumably they don't want to have every single meeting in person, or at least video chat, like Euros (and Asians) do. 1 am PST video conferences with UK/Germany are a PITA.

The idea of complaining about what's market and fighting over "commercially reasonable efforts" versus "best efforts" and caps and deductibles for another 30 years is daunting.

But it's good $$

A partner once told me that it's all BS and courts don't really distinguish between the different "efforts" standards. Not sure if that was true

People do exaggerate it a lot, though. That’s why I just do “commercially reasonable best efforts” slide and let do

Maybe even more lucrative than many high finance jobs on a risk adjusted basis. The only thing is I found it utterly soul crushing rather than merely tedious

"commercially reasonable efforts" = a business judgment rule-like standard where you can argue "alright, we tried."

"best efforts" = ALL LEGALLY AVAILABLE EFFORTS, MUST GET DONE.

This is one of the few deal-points of this nature that is actually important.
