I currently have an 1800 billable hour requirement at my firm. On paper this means I'm billing 7.5 hour days/150 hour months. I'm looking at firm's that have an 1850-1950 hour requirements - what impact on my work/like balance will those extra 150 have?

The big part that stands between you and success is your fear. You need to know how to handle it and make the most out of your experience in life.

How are years of experience determined at Amazon? I have 10 YOE as a government PM (post masters) and 1 in industry as BD (post MBA). Interviewing for a BD role. Do I have 1 or 13 YOE, or maybe somewhere in the middle?

I see many posts "How many points?". Someone should create a central spreadsheet for those scenarios and also state what is the best channel to get the pts? Ticketing agent, reward hotline, etc???

SOS. How do I know if I’m being paid fairly? I feel as though I’ve grown out out the “coordinator” role, but my company insists that I “prove myself” and add more responsibilities to my plate to show I am capable before I am promoted. But I feel like I already am doing more than a coordinator title, and my job title is just wrong. Is that fair?

How do you handle handoff/transition before going on maternity leave? I will be going on maternity leave in 3 months and need to put together a transition plan so that someone can take care of my work while I am out. I want to make sure nothing falls through the crack but at the same time don’t want to train someone to do 100% of my job - that would make my role redundant if someone can just take over right? Plus the company is going through restructuring now too. How would you handle this?

Okay I’ll admit it, staging homes might be my favorite part of preparing for house showings. My inner professional home decorating gets excited! Career switch maybe? - Confessions of a Realtor

You are plaintiff. One of your defendants is a “doe.” You have to move for default judgment. Can you default a Jane Doe? Or do you just fail to prosecute the Doe and default the named defendant?

Any advice on transitioning out of law to anything else that pays around the same (180+)? I’m 3 years out of law school. 1.5 at a small law firm and 1.5 big law. M&A practice group. Too soon to go in house? I hate billable hours and have no life working 2100 hours a year.

Is it just me, or is even just 8 billable hours per day exhausting?

Should I send a Christmas gift to my partner? I’ve done cards in the past but. I was a poorly paid intern back then.

Any exception to hearsay rules to admit testimony of a decesed plaintiff where we did not have a chance to cross-examine? I know it can’t come in but wondering if any exceptions exist? Corroboration of a co-witness testimony? Any thoughts- thanks! (NY)

What’s considered an acceptable realization rate? I’m currently sitting at 70%, but it would be around 85% excluding my contingency files.

This may not be the right forum for this question, but what are actual legitimate reasons for wanting the option to buy an AR15 without restrictions? It can't be tradition, hunting, or sport, so what? I'm not being sarcastic, I'm just curious. I live in a bubble where I don't interact with alot of people of different viewpoints, let alone know any gun owners. Is it just because you can?

I took the UBE this past July for a second state. I didn’t think it was that hard. While a Freind of mine who’s 100x smarter than me thought she failed it. I’m starting to wonder if I under thought it.

Howdy, is court investigator material discoverable? Are they able to be deposed? Looking in the code and not seeing anything. Happy Friday!

Thoughts on various corporate law / m&a practices in Orange County? Curious about culture, work flow and practices. With all the homelessness and crime LA has turned into a dumpster fire and I can’t imagine raising my young kids here any longer. Thanks!

I was working with a partner on drafting a brief, who hated the way I wrote it, made me drastically change everything, increase the word count and spill my blood, sweat, and tears for months into editing it. Just before filing a different partner took a hand at cutting it down because it was too long - and he edited the brief back to the way I wrote it originally 🤦🏽‍♀️ Sometimes this job is an absolute joke.

Any advice for the NYLE? I'm already in a V40 outside of NY. I don't necessarily need a NY license so no pressure to pass honestly. Aside from the 17 hrs of videos, I've done nothing to prepare.

How to stay motivated or disciplined when you know you want to leave litigation? I plan to go in house in 1-1.5 years. Can't leave yet because I started a new job recently and need this experience. I just have 0 discipline and get so distracted while I work.

M&A Hours Check. What’s your year end target looking like? Think about 80 percent of the firm’s group is not going to hit hours. Not sure how sustainable this is. Definitely have great leadership that are swallowing the brunt of it, but I’m curious if any survivors of 08 ever had a really bad hours year and still survived. Obviously M&A takes the brunt during these times, but are firms thinking that they want to be poised for when things return back to normal or are they about to let the ball go

Looking for some honest opinions on a career in law: I have always wanted to be an attorney but I got married young and went the entrepreneur route as a software developer. However, now that I’m in my 30’s, I’ve started the last year of my undergrad and I’m strongly considering law school.

For those of you in the field, what would you tell someone in my position? Would you recommend law school? Would you do it again? Would you discourage it?
