I enjoy PI but the clients are ruining it for me. Entitled, ungrateful, abusive, annoying, and just nasty people. “This accident ruined my life” when they’ve had a month and a half of chiro. Not all, but enough to ruin the experience for me.

What’s a good LA or NY business litigation firm and salary to expect? I’m a 2yr with quite frankly a lot of experience across civ rights, PI, excessive force, wrongful death, employment defense, K dispute, corp. structure dispute, professional licensure.

In house or M&A/Real Estate Transactional are likely the end goal but want to get the litigation out of me first.

In an auto accident trial, can you inform the jury in any way that the at-fault driver had insurance? I have a hard time believing a jury would award 7-figure damages if they thought the little old lady defendant had to personally pay.
