Has anyone ever made the switch from Commercial Lit to Private Client/T&E? If so, any tips? Is getting a tax LLM necessary? What made you switch? Thanks in advance :)

I’m considering this as well. I imagine an LLM would be very helpful, especially coming from commercial lit.

My first lead that came organically from my brand new firm site was for a huge amount of work my guess is 350 hours.

I think I overshot it because right after I gave the quote I was ghosted.

Hi all - please set me straight. Am I on par with comp?

AdTech Sales - Account Executive. No experience in Sales, but was in client services with my company for 10 years.

Base 142 with 100% match, so 284 OTE. Accelerators after 100, which doubles up to 125. (101 to goal will garner 102 in commission, 105 will 110, caps out at 125 so max is 150% commission)

Q1 is looking good already so feel good about things. But curious if this is a good deal.

How do other, particularly small, partnerships deal with write offs of client bills? First month as partner and former boss, now partner, had me cover something last minute. Client freaked.
