Ask HN: Looking for input re Orrick Law Firm...

4 pointsdonna3 comments

Hi. I attended an Orrick event a month ago. At the end of the seminar our CEO was pinged by a budding attorney to meet and has been in weekly meetings with Orrick ever since. There appears to be some promise of introducing us to investors, and "if only you had /this/, you'd be in a deal." I know nothing of Orrick's intentions or reputation and was hoping to get some input. Anyone know anything? Thanks!

I know nothing about their ability to intro startups to investors, but Orrick as a firm is first-rate.

Concur about Orrick's being first rate - also, its Silicon Valley lineage was much strengthened when it merged with Venture Law Group in 2003, VLG having itself been a Craig Johnson-led spin-off from WSGR a decade before that.

thanks PG really appreciate the inpute.
