Easy....pfs or trial....end of day...and time....as pi atty, if i claim in presuit my clients going to get that surgery and 2 years later at doorstep trial claiming the same thing, and thd client never had surgery, safe to say im losing that battle.

No real hard line answer for this.

Perhaps a billing expert for the expenses and/or medical expert to refute the medical necessity of the procedures or tie them to prior injuries (if true)

You have to get an expert who refutes the relatedness of the future treatment.

One of my direct reports has asked about going part time. They currently manage special reports in a bi-weekly publication, working closely with sales, freelance writers, and an internal designer. Job duties are primarily project management and editing/proofreading. As the first read on articles, they need to have an understanding of the material (business/regulation). Has anyone had experience with job sharing in this type of a role?

Journalism is the best job in the world but I feel like people are less likely to take my work seriously because I am female. So it's like they automatically think the only things I would be good at writing about are fluffy little human interest stories. I'm just a reporter like everyone else. Is there some way I can tell my supervisor that yes, I do like those stories, but I like being a serious reporter even more?

Received a job offer. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on a concern I had about it. It's an entry level position, and I don't have much experience. The billables are 2040 a year. For billable hours in civil litigation and insurance defense, is 2040 hours for a 1st year associate on the high end in this field for a small or midsize firm? It seems like most attorneys I know have minimum requirements of around 1800. The compensation is around 80k a year.
