Has anyone in Florida found it a challenge to land an insurance defense or personal injury job with more than 2-5 years experience? Is it because of tort reform?

I'm in south Florida and I'm getting tons of recruiters reaching out for insurance defense jobs. I've been busier because of the tort reform.

Yes......its actually wild.....last year i had tons of recruiters and employers msging me or asking for an interview.

100% because of tort reform. There arent as many cases going around this year so people like the person who responded that said hes busier than ever, wont be in a year or two unless they are at a m&m or other big volume place.

Recruiters are msging for job openings, but if u have more than 5 years u r prob asking for total comp over 160k+ and once you say that nobody wants you.

I been on three interviews in 6 months and they all either want a newbie to pay low or someone with 5+ yrs with 10 first chair trials, its stupid.

Desantis destroyed our field generally.

Why would a luxury watch brand make/sell connected or smart watches? What is the business reason for it? To me it just kills the brand value.

What is your opinion on this topic?

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F
