Billing is an art and I'm drawing stick figures. I'm terrible at catching time, especially time spent reviewing files so I can do check-ins, short email responses, task/deadline management, etc. Managing partner has a magic brain that retains info like no joke, but I typically have to check the file and "relearn" where the case is before I can do X. How can I capture more time and make it clear to a client that the "quick" task reasonably took .3 or .4? And/or any billing guides to share?

It may seem obvious, but in my experience partners value trial experience over anything else, so get it however you can. For example, my firm will favor a former prosecutor who has seen the courtroom a lot but has no civil litigation experience (not even a depo) over a seasoned associate who has only second chaired cases with a partner but hasn’t tried a case. Even trying a case and losing gives you credibility at my firm because you still did it.

My late grandmother’s house was willed that it be sold and 1/2 would go to my dad and 1/2 split between my aunts. My aunt is executrix. House was sold in 2019 and my aunt claims proceeds haven’t been divided because she is still paying taxes from the sale. Is she lying and trying to wait as long as she can to pay out the funds? What’s her long game? Anything we can do?

I’m a new associate to a T&E group, partner goes away on vacation and leaves me with a 706 to review and sign. The family is very wealthy. Decedent married for 60 years. Partner says it’s “just a DSUE election, decedent was ill for years, no assets.” Provides no records. Not even an admission the decedent owned a toothbrush. So I looked up the decedent’s home - it’s a joint asset. Partner was “surprised”, and still insists “no other assets”. I found file references to art and antiques.
