Clients are on one with deductions lately. Apparently paralegals should be doing discovery responses.

I had a deduction claiming that “draft analysis of applicable case law into MSJ” was a paralegal task. However, I’m pretty sure that client had an algorithm that was designed just to cut 1/3 of the bill no matter what so I don’t think it mattered what was put down.

Looking for a single room in a shared occupancy in and around Hinjewadi from May. Any leads is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance(daily mail likhne ka aadat nahi gaya).

My partner of 5 years ended our relationship last night. I’m shattered and feel absolutely sick, and I know the healing isn’t going to be easy. We were on the verge of an engagement and I was ready to spend the rest of my life with him.

I don’t know how to approach work during this time. I think I can get by, but I’m definitely not 100%. Should I talk to my boss about it? My team is close-knit and comfortable around each other, but I don’t know if it’s “appropriate.” What would you do?

How come in TV shows there are different salaries for different actors? And it's even worse when you bring numbers in. Per episode, there have been cases where some people make twice as much as others.

What’s a good salary to expect doing workers comp defense in Florida?

PLC just hit me with a MTC and sanctions because an insured took too long to give me depo dates while he underwent cancer treatment. This is after agreeing to extend discovery by two months. Should I oppose this thing or line my cats litter box?

Anyone have any suggestions for getting a client to cooperate with discovery. We were retained by a insurance company for their insured and he has not returned emails or phone calls in about 4 weeks. Plaintiff’s counsel wants a settlement offer, and discovery responses or they’re gonna file a motion to compel. The company has been made aware of the insured’s noncooperation but they have tell us they’re pulling coverage for us to withdraw.

I just started working in ID and Workers Comp. and have no substantial work experience in either. The closest experience I have is some personal injury work. Any advice transitioning into this area of law and how I can become better acquainted with this area of law, mainly procedural stuff? Thanks in advance!

I work at a small Midwest ID firm doing mostly MVAs for an Insurance Carrier. Currently have a case where where plaintiff is claiming extensive lost wages from missing tips from working as a bartender/waitress. Place of employment is a strip club, I got a feeling she’s a dancer not a bartender or waitress. But it got me wondering has anyone ran into someone claiming lost wages or revenue from being an OF creator and not being able to crate content due to injury?
