How would you evaluate an offer where firm keeps 30%, originator gets 30%, and worker gets 40%? 30% includes office, paralegal and associates. You keep 100% of collections from portable business for 8 months then formula kicks in.

I love my job and the people I work with, but there’s one thing that really bothers me: the lack of diversity. Sometimes when I walk into the office and see everyone else around me as the only POC, it feels kind of weird. I don’t think anyone here has ever said anything racist or sexist to me personally, but I don’t feel comfortable talking about these issues with anyone because they might take it personally and then things could get awkward between us.
