I’d have to double check some old bills, but I don’t think you’re getting substantially cheaper representation in Japan. In HK you’re probably working with a UK or US firm anyway. Singapore is cheaper than Canada, but not by a lot. Korean billable hour rates might be lower - would need to check - but they also have that secret sauce that somehow ends up driving a bill up every time with 8+ lawyers staffed where 4 competent ones would suffice. Mideast you might be working with a US firm. SA would always be cheaper than Canada. Cayman/BVI isn’t far off. -

To be fair, most NY PE associates would tell you we’re pretty shocked by how many lawyers Bay firms (…some in particular…) staff on a deal. I still don’t really understand why as lead counsel I can do with 4 lawyers while Toronto as local counsel in one jurisdiction among a half dozen needs 8 or whatever. UK and Canadian firms both seem to staff up a lot heavier than elsewhere. Also, I’m kind of confused by your description here. If NY was acting as lead counsel, what exactly were they doing if not negotiating and handling the SPA? Local counsel usually just checks some boxes for local legal points - it’s not heavy lifting. -

Scaling down from A and A- on all assignments to C+ is over the top and seems like a poorly managed course the way you have described it. Re-read the syllabus to see if there is any information provided on course average, scaling, etc. I would check into the rules and procedure involved in challenging a grade at your law school and what exact rights you have in that process. It may be there is an intermediate step where you can get a better understanding of what happened in this course before you make the decision on whether to challenge. Try seeing if grades and averages are listed for past years in your course to get an idea how this course has been handled, search online to see what the exact percentage rules are for a class of this size, etc. -

Yeah so when you appeal you need to attach proof you tried to talk to the prof. So just have that ready to go.
