All the time. I work remote and if I’m inactive for 10 mins it kicks me off. I can be on the phone or working on a file and I get booted. Edited to note: I work remote getting medical records for my NPNP. Majority of my day, I’m on the phone and getting kicked off for bc inactivity of 10 mins is annoying. So that was my solution

I currently work at a small PI firm in Atlanta were EVERYTHING is settled presuit. If we’re unable to settle, then it’s referred to another firm for litigation. This whole process seems very atypical to me and the attorneys rarely touch a file until the first liability offer is received. The paralegals handle everything from intake to drafting the demands. The attorney briefly skims (does NOT read) the demand packages and signs. Is this ethical?? Anyone else work at a firm that is run this way??
