Some of the richest lawyers in Texas, if not the richest (Buzbee, and Arnold & Itkin) all spent less than a year a Susman before saying fuck it and flying solo. I can't imagine they learned much about PI work in six months at Susman.

Cr. If you want to litigate, chasing prestige is one of the stupidest things you can do. T14, Law review, biglaw, AUSA, clerkship etc. - none of that shit matters. You should have the smarts to do all of that but don't actually do it. Find a good shitlaw mentor and off you go.

Not to suck the guy's dick, but he's smart (he was top of his class at like UT or UCLA or something) and bold and creative (the bulk of the uncertainty young lawyers feel about the way things work is them being too big of a pussy to just go and do what they think should be the way to do it -- sometimes you get laughed at and have to go back and do shit the way everyone else does it; other times you can invent a better way).

As much as he talks about networking (which is obviously important) and implies that it's all about being a super-extrovert, I don't think that's true at all. I know some truly weird dudes -- scrawny little bespectacled fucks who Street Clients viscerally hate -- who nonetheless do great business by just putting themselves out there again and again, even though they have no natural skill whatsoever at it.

The big firms are even worse at litigation than the shit defense firms. I love going up against big firms. Once they get their billing in, they overpay through the nose.
