I asked that question in another Bowl but I’ll add it here: anyone had any trials anywhere? If so where and how did it go?

During COVID? I have one in a few months. Hearings are weird right now, and depos are even worse. Hopefully it's not a complete disaster.

Yes during Covid.

3+ day Zoom trial for a contested divorce, so just a bench trial. It was an overall positive experience - partner and I in were separate offices and used Teams to message back and forth during witness testimony; screen shared exhibits; was able to save the client some $$ by not having to pay travel costar for certain witnesses. Certain trial courts in Massachusetts have been doing Zoom trials since June-ish. My trial was August & September.

Following. In California (Bay Area) and I’m supposed to have a trial in March but still not sure what’s happening and neither the court administration nor my judge is giving us clear guess dance.

I’m in the same boat. Frustrating.

3 day zoom trial in Delaware. Overall not bad, but honestly, more stressful than a real trial. Partner was bombarding me throughout his direct and cross for additional
Documents not included in the exhibit list. Since we had access to our computers. Had to find on the spot and email back.

Questions on Back door Roth:

(1) When you contribute the max ($6k) to a traditional IRA and convert, do you pay any taxes, assuming no gains (e.g. buying VMFXX)? Contributions are non-deductible.

(2) When rolling over old 401(k)s into an traditional IRA and converting to Roth IRA, do you pay taxes on the entire (non-Roth) amount?

(3) Can you use the same traditional IRA account to process multiple rollovers? I have an empty traditional and Roth set up with Vanguard.

Not sure how to gauge this: first year lit attorney and have not been meeting hours due to general lack of work (I ask for it, people just say to hang tight until something comes up). The work I do get typically has a very quick turnaround time, so I’ll bill ~14h/day but for only a few days at a time, resulting in low monthly numbers. Is this normal for lit? Part of me thinks it’s a result of poor case management, but who am I to say? Just trying to hear about others’ experiences.
