I hear my friends complaining about how much they hate their job or hate the culture. This is why I started my own firm. I create my own culture.

I am a work culture of one after about fourteen years of working for others. It’s amazing how much time I got back when I stepped away from a firm and no longer had to put any time or effort into all of the drama, admin related to dealing with drama, etc.

Sitting on my porch in beautiful weather working on my laptop and not being interrupted by constant pot stirring chatter is bliss.

Young solo here w/ a question about fees: 1. A local solo criminal defense attorney has offered to pay me to go and make appearances before the Court on some of her cases to make announcements. (For example, “ready when reached”). I’m open to doing this and this attorney is asking what my fee would be? Does anyone have thoughts or opinions on what a reasonable fee would be to do something like this? Hourly? Flat Fee? 2. I want to ensure this is ethical. I don’t see an issue with this. Thoughts?

I work at a small, 3 lawyer firm. One of the lawyers is not barred in the state we practice.

Is this normal? I am not provided time to review the materials before I file them so I end up working longer days because I am nervous to file something using my name and bar number.
