Any tips on how to transition into immigration from personal injury in Dallas? I have about 9 months of experience doing business immigration. A lot of firms are looking for 3+ years of experience.

You just gotta put yourself out there. Stand in the middle of the highway with your eyes closed, and if you are lucky, you will find yourself with personal injury

Have you looked into your existing firms book of business to inform your impetus for immigration-related work? Many immigration agencies have pre-existing “healthy”relationships with law firms that already provide immigration help and so instead of re-inventing yourself in Dallas find ways to re-introduce yourself with the current political climate in mind. 9-months of business immigration is sizable acumen especially with a personal injury background.

I'm getting my brother autographed Panthers memorabilia for christmas, but I'm the gay son in the family who knows nothing about football... So we've got someone named D.J. Moore, another named Terrance Marshall Jr., Luke Kuechly, and Robbie Anderson. None of these names are doing anything for me, nor do any of the stats mean anything to me when I look up their names on Google. Do any of these names ring a bell to you, and which ones would be the coolest for a signed helmet/jersey?

Anyone here know of a wholesaler that supplies bottles like this? I've checked Alibaba, Thomasnet, and various other sites, but not much luck. I can't currently fulfill anything above 500 bottles and most suppliers I've come across have a minimum of 1000 or more. Any help is greatly appreciated!

7 year lawyer here. Been with the same big national firm all 7 years (not BigLaw) doing complex litigation. Been working remote a long time due to moving around for wife’s job. As a result of the moving was bumped off partner track. I’m looking at a great small firm that will be a practice change (but still litigation). I’m told they’re looking for someone with less experience and they’re skeptical because of my experience. It’s frustrating. How do I overcome this?
