Does anyone know if Ogletree offers a clerkship bonus? If so, what’s the typical range? And does it vary if you’ve done multiple clerkships (for example three years of federal clerkship experience)?

I haven’t heard of any of the big 4 doing a clerkship bonus. Not saying it’s not a thing though. You’ll definitely be a better attorney and more marketable because of it though

Thank you!

I am at OD. I don’t know if they do clerkship bonuses but they do offer signing bonuses sometimes (not sure if for clerkships specifically). Maybe frame it that way? Or try to go in as at a higher level associate based on your experience.

Home reno financing question. Have a big project coming up in the $120-150k range. Funding sources are:
- 90k from a heloc around prime
- 10k from a credit card that offers promo checks at 2-3% for 12-18 months
- 375k in a brokerage
- 5-6k per month cash that I can put towards the project, loans, or brokerage

I don't want to stop funding the brokerage because my FIRE plan is less numbers based than "hoard like dragon until it's enough" but maybe I should... How would you optimize?

I have a governmental entity client in Texas that wants to offer 6 weeks of paid parental leave for all employees, even those who aren’t eligible for FMLA. After the paid 6 weeks, the employee can choose to continue paid leave using any accrued personal leave.

Texas does not have a paid parental leave statute.

If paid leave above what is required is offered for parents, do we also have to provide the same benefit to other employees that are eligible for unpaid leave?

I’ve asked for more EPL work but keep catching PI cases. I second-chaired an employment trial but don’t see any EPL work for the foreseeable future and wasn’t getting as much EPL exposure as I wanted before the trial. Any advice on a lateral move to a bigger firm with a broader range of EPL work?
