They have a matrix:
1800 hrs, 2020 grad = base comp
2000 hrs, 2020 grad = base comp
2200 hrs, 2020 grad = base comp

So it depends what bucket you pick on hours and your grad year. If you pick the 1800 bucket but bill 2000 in reality, you will be compensated for the extra 200 hours.

Pretty sure they start at 205k entry level.

One of my best clients - happy to share, have placed in the group currently hiring.

I’m a litigator at Winstead. Culture is great. Hours are easy to hit if you’re a hard worker. (1800 - easy). It’s a very relaxed office. DM me if you want.

Best place to get pre-qualified for a mortgage?

I have some collections on my credit report. One from an electric company for $800 (imo they violated terms of contract and sent me to collections in spite of their fuck up), and an apartment for $80~ that charged me a cleaning fee when my apartment was spotless.

Despite these two collections have a 712-720 credit score.

So mortgage lenders care at all about the collections or is it mostly the credit score that matters?
