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)

Bill as you go. I would include the proofreading in your billing

Ins. carriers will cut your time and your boss will do so too if it’s excessive thus making you an unprofitable hire. Figure out if it’s you that needs to change your writing or if the problem is the boss switch teams / firms.

No the problem isn’t excessive billing. I don’t bill for the proofreading that I need to do in order to avoid typos due to my partners’ reaction.

It’s Friday night at midnight and I just got out of work. I am new to FPP defense. So far it’s soul crushing. I feel like a robot just doing the same pattern pleadings and discovery over and over.

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?

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

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?

How do you keep your carriers from Vomitting Money? How do you tell carriers that they are only feeding the Beast by paying “cost of defense”?
