Any Bipolar lawyers out here? I went a little hypomanic last night and couldn't sleep so I woke up and wanted to work as I can get crazy amounts done. Then my dog woke up, then my wife.... This life is hard.

Alright, I get the middle mkt is not doing well, therefore, RSM will be carrying the effects for a while. How has this pandemic affected the Big Four? How will it impact the Big Four?

December is typically slow due to EOY/holidays. How to maintain momentum when losing motivation and don’t want to stall until Jan?

Any shops implementing COVID protocols?

here's my prediction.

If Biden wins, the media will begin to message the following;

-The worst COVID risks and outcomes are to people with identifiable risk factors such as obesity and diabetes.

-Most other people who catch it will experience a bad flu.

-Many other people who catch it won't even know they have it.

-It's not commonly transmitted by touching objects and person to person transmittal is low risk except in close contact.

The media will then message that we should;

I really struggled with depression during my PhD program. Did anyone else experience this and how did you minimize the damage?

How much time in advance did you order your IVF drugs from a mail-in pharmacy (e.g. CVS caremark)? Should I wait until I get my period to order them to make sure I'm not already pregnant or buy them in advance? Waiting for the results of my IUI, but will move directly to IVF if it doesn't work.

I’m looking at a fertility clinic stats and the early 30s results look good (over 50 percent) but the over 40 year old category is well below the national average. I’m looking another clinic with less cycles but 40 plus category is almost at 20 percent success rate (above national average). Should I rely on these numbers in making a decision ?

Does anyone know the likelihood of successfully negotiating with Lyft’s insurance? A friend was injured in GA when a Lyft driver hit his car (his Tesla recorded the whole thing) and Lyft is pushing him to accept a pain and suffering payout. He was injured, but not seriously enough for a hospital stay. His Tesla was totaled. Not my practice area so any insight is appreciated!

Hello everyone ,
I’m currently working in insurance customer service at an agency. I work in the mortgage department assisting w mortgage changes , payments etc. I’ve been thinking about becoming a claims adjuster most likely for property damage . Is it worth it ???

What are some good companies I maybe should apply for after getting my license?

What is the average annual salary increase for a first year associate starting at $125k at a busy midsized firm in New York? What would be reasonable to ask for (assuming a $300 billable rate and 1800 billable requirement)?

I am a young and a woman of color. I am an incoming associate at an established firm in a relatively small city (~80k population). I like the firm very much. I am, however, the only woman of color at my firm. I grew up on the nearby reservation. I have recently been vocal about a local business changing its name. The name venerates an individual who massacred native people. It made the news. Am I ruffling too many feathers? Should I be less vocal now that I will be a lawyer? I feel uncomfortable

Is it reasonable to be expected to spend 20-30 non-billable hours a month checking your paralegal’s work? (i.e. summarizing hundreds of records and bills). The partner said he “didn’t use paralegals” at his previous firm and eating the time is an “investment in yourself.” Is this common?

I’m a 3rd year associate heading into my 4th year. Litigation is not for me. Is it too late to switch to transactional work? What steps do you recommend I take to make the switch?

Hot take- law school career services people push grads who aren't getting into biglaw into solo practice to preserve the school's employment numbers.

How long to argue MSJ? Opposing counsel wants to request a half day which seems insane to me. Cross MSJs. I told him no matter how complicated these motions are judge is not going to want to listen to us for more than maybe an hour—even that seems too long.

Looking to start a new job after the first of the year. When should I start applying? I’m hoping to transition out of plaintiffs work and into prosecution.

For people who have returned to the office, are you feeling more or less productive? Today’s my first day back (going in only twice a week) and it feels like being new again. I also feel less productive since it’s harder to randomly to play music or step out for a walk to recalibrate and focus. Is it just me?

Does anyone know if working remotely counts toward reciprocity?

I’ve been practicing law in Minnesota for 2 years and 6 months. I need 3 years to be able to swear in to Colorado. If I join a Colorado firm and work in Minnesota until I can be sworn in, will that work? Or am I definitely gonna have to take the bar?

In-house people (or those who know in house people), how much do y’all make and in what city are you located?

Billables are low this month. Like I have 65 billable hours in so far. I’ve messaged partners over the last week to try and get more cases but there are tons of new associates who were just onboarded and were at a low point for business. I’m freaking out

For those of you whose firms don’t have free market work allocation, what kind of system do you have in place (particularly for more junior attorneys)? Does it work?

So. I’ll just come out and share that I was an average law student. However, I was involved in a prestigious clinic supervised by a big law managing partner so I ended up following him to his firm. Think bottom 25% student who got lucky! This partner has been a fantastic boss and mentor! I am a mid level now. Last week we settled a big case against a V25 firm. We won! When all was said and done I emailed the head partner on that matter to compliment him and smooth out things.
