After working as Justice Black's sole law clerk from 1946 to 1947, Oberdorfer went into private practice in Washington, D.C., with the firm Paul, Weiss, Wharton & Garrison as a tax attorney until his friend and law school classmate deputy attorney general Byron White asked him to join the United States Justice Department in 1961.
