Do any of my other litigators who are thinking about a case on a Saturday night go back and read your briefs submitted on your case to feel better?

Sure do. It's part of my process.

Not a litigator, but I regularly read my draft documents and my emails again after I have sent them out, paranoidly looking for mistakes (always find something…) and/or to feel better about how well written they are or something. It’s like an illness.

Have a 60% increase in salary in hand L&E management side, would stay at current firm if they bump me up at least 40%.

Trying to avoid the awkward situation of leveraging them w the offer, them matching, and now employer knows I could pull the same stunt again in the future? Thoughts on how to handle this sitch?

Advice to young lawyers. Read a book.

I saw the thread about savings and many young lawyers (20s and 30s) don’t know how to open up a brokerage account or invest in their 401k. I know they don’t teach personal finance in school (though they should!), but my advice is that you should go to your local library and read a book about the subject. You have the skills necessary but you must invest in yourself. No one will look out for you.
