Hi, iam joining ID firm and am very new to the billing world. What are some helpful tips that you can share with me? Also, in general, what are some things that you wish you knew when you first started. TIa

A colleague just "shamed me" about the size of my engagement ring. My fiance is a wonderful, hardworking guy who bought me a beautiful ring. I'd take a great guy over a large ring any day.

Opinions on headshots? Should I get one?

What’s the process for resigning on the bench? What’s the appropriate sequence of communication and should it be email vs. phone?

Hello all 👋 new to the bowl today.

I hope everyone is having a great week so far!

Thinking of leaving healthcare and trying FAANG. I have an MPH. Any tips?

At an ID firm, but doing 30% ID, and the rest is appellate work + appellate work in a different area of law. Team is amazing—well known people in the legal community. I love appellate work, want to be a state ct appellate judge ultimately. But I’m scared I’m locking myself into ID. What should I do?

Anyone hiring fully remote AEs?
28% close rate, 65% win rate. Top in my segment.

I worked at two different food delivery companies with nearly polarized cultures. One was transparent and collaborative, allowing ideas to come from anywhere in the organization. The other was very secretive, and you could only focus on what you were assigned to do. In your opinion, what defines a great company culture?

Rainier Club / Columbia Tower Club

Got some ads for these. Anyone tried them as members? How’d you like it?

Gen questions for consultants who moved to MM PE, how is the work culture (cutthroat, competitive), stress (insane at closings), & ability to “unplug” on vaca/wknds at your firm?

What brands are you really into at the moment? Would be great to think about and be inspired by those doing a great job!

To all those who have got or trying to get international assignments. What skills do we need to showcase to our leads/managers and possess.
Also those who are managers what do you expect one should have in order to get this opportunity.

How much did you all pay for the 20 week ultrasound out of pocket? My 12 week ultrasound cost me $600 so I am guessing the 20 week one would be even more expensive. I have the high deductible plan from United healthcare.

I don't have much experience, but want to get my foot in the door in the VC space. What do you recommend?

How do I bill efficiently when my partner has literal meltdowns whenever there’s even a minor typo in my motions or letters. I’m terrified of minor misspellings when turning things in for his approval so will literally proofread things 3-4 times (doubling the time things take)

Hello. I am new to this bowl. Hope to collaborate and share ideas/info.

I have worked in house for an insurer for 20 years plus. New to this group but excited to see dialogue and networking opportunities.

Is there a book or something I can read about first party property defense. Just started working at a firm and they basically threw me into the ocean to swim with no guidance whatsoever.

I am a fourth year attorney and am on track to be partner of a small but well established ID firm in 2-3 years. Our bread and butter is ID but I have the freedom to take on any matters I like.

I do not want to be doing ID forever but I really don’t know what comes next. What other similar but more advanced (and better paying) fields of defense litigation are out there? Is the next type of civil defense litigation just going out and being hired by private companies?

Any advice for a judicial law clerk who is starting law career in ID this fall?

I have another question - I’ll be going to a mid size ID firm that also does crim defense, family, environmental, and more. I get a bonus if I bring in business. How does that even happen?

Currently work at an ID firm (2nd year) and realizing that litigation (arguing motions, taking depositions, etc) maybe not be for me. Anyone in a similar boat and successfully transitioned either to in house or corporate without having the requisite experience many jobs require?

I worked FT as a paralegal and went to law school in the evening. I recently interviewed at a small ID firm in employment law with about 9 attorneys. They asked for a writing sample. I dont have anything recent but provided what I had from last yr in a legal writing class, it was not enough for them. I became licensed this May so I dont have an array of motions to pick from. Then they asked for my undergrad transcript, at this point, I am now annoyed They are not Biglaw. Are they going overboard

PO IP I MJ. No

Hi, new here.

For those who like litigation, but not personal injury and premises liability claims, why areas are you feeling the most traction in while looking for lateral moves to other firms?

Does Workers Comp Defense have a future?

Newly barred attorney here! Considering a position at a small firm that represents corporations in claims against insurance companies. I love litigation but have never considered insurance litigation. Any advice?

What does everyone think about workers comp defense? I just started at my new firm and seems ok but wondering whether I should make a career out of it. And would I be pigeonholed away from other areas of insurance defense?
