In this episode of Legal Chutney, I had the pleasure of speaking with Suhansi Perera, an attorney at Latham and Watkins who shared her journey navigating different practice groups and finding her place in the legal world.

We had a thoughtful conversation about growth, mentorship, and the power of being proactive in shaping your own career path.

We covered:

• The process of transitioning from transactional work to antitrust law — and what inspired that shift.
• The importance of networking, curiosity, and adaptability in building a fulfilling legal career.
• How law school prepares (and sometimes doesn’t prepare) you for the realities of practice.
• Finding the right professional fit and embracing opportunities for learning along the way.
