I do… know that I’m moving away from litigation. Hate litigating - realizing that and developing a game plan to get out of it has substantially improved my life

Yep

Love my job. Can’t imagine doing anything else (that pays nearly as well).

I enjoy it now (even though litigation hurts my soul sometimes), but I only got into it bc that’s the type of clerkship I got hired for in law school, and that experience got my my next job, and so on. Happy accident, I guess.

Hi everyone. Is it typical for the attorney to take credit for the work a paralegal does?

Zero credit or thank you for the work I did.
