I’ve used it a handful of times. I’m a fully remote employee about 20 miles out of boston. Some days I want to get into the city to have lunch with friends, have an after work networking event, etc. so I use WeWork for those days. I like it for that purpose but it seems like more people utilize it as a recurring office. That would seem expensive to me. Fun space though, sort of depends on your particular situation and every office and floor is different. At least one I was on a really collaborative floor and it was a bit loud for my liking, but my fault for not doing an office.

Additional Posts in Small Law / Solos

Hi. I’m in need of advice and encouragement. I’m currently working as a public defender(2nd year) but I would love to pursue a solo private practice. I would like to leave the public defender because I am ready to make more money and I am no longer feeling the fulfillment I once felt. I have a family and work-life balance is a priority. What is a good way to gain experience in other areas of law as a solo practitioner? What areas of law are best for maintaining a work-life balance?

Advice for Of Counsel roles? I am of counsel at a firm where I can set my own rate and keep a percentage of collections, which varies slightly depending on whether the client is one I generated or not.

What is the right way for me to be compensated in this scenario?
