Advice for finding a mentor outside of your firm?
As a junior associate, I don’t have a significant network of lawyers outside of my firm and my law school friends.
A lot of the questions I have and advice and guidance i find myself needing as I think about shaping my career just aren’t things I feel I can ask even my very trusted mentors and advisors at my firm.
There are some lawyers who are alums of my school or whose work I’m just kind of aware of that I admire and of course I could ask for a coffee or something but I just want to be very thoughtful and intentional about approaching building this kind of relationship.
Any and all thoughts welcome! I’m sure I’m not the only one looking for this
