A friend of mine died today. She was a lawyer,too. Smart, funny, talented beyond belief, hard-working, knowledgeable, beautiful, humble, and genuinely well liked by all who knew her. While she was an exceptional attorney, it is not her legal acumen that I will miss, but rather how she made everyone feel good about themselves when she was near. Be righteous to each other, won’t you?

I'm a third year plaintiff's employment law attorney and I'm looking to move to defense, preferably still in employment law. I received an offer from a midsize firm that primarily focuses on PI with little-to-no employment law practice, so I'll have a bit of a learning curve. Offer is $90k, billable hours of 2100. Is this reasonable? I'm dead-set on leaving my current job, and this would be a $20k pay increase - which makes me believe I'm leaning towards taking it for those reasons only.
