Hotel or corporate housing? Benefits and drawbacks of each. This is for a long term engagement in Denver. I really like getting my Marriott points, but wouldn’t mind staying some weekends in Denver.

Why can’t you stay the weekends occasionally anyway while you’re in the hotel? You get the points during the week, expense the hotel over the weekend bc it’s cheaper than flying home, still get the points on the weekend, win win. What’s the real question here?

Depends on where in Denver maybe? There are some nice hotels here but if the housing is in a nice area that might be a better option 🤷🏽‍♂️. Also why can't you do what A1 suggested?

When drafting a brief or other submissions for court or arbitration, do you use words such as clearly, erroneously, etc. to emphasize certain points?

I know that the politically correct thing to do here is to do whatever the managing partner wants me to do, but I just wanted to ask for other ppl's opinion.
