I’m going on maternity leave but some things happening at my work are making me believe I might be let go when I come back. Anyone knows a good lawyer that could help me?

A lawyer can only help you if you are being discriminated against and can prove it. Like in writing or recorded.
If they are just being sneaky or unfair, you are wasting mental effort on this. You may know in your heart of hearts that they are (for instance) planning to replace you while on leave and then lay you off or demote you- but you’d have to prove they did that just because you were pregnant and not for any other reason at all.

Here to say I was laid off at 31 weeks pregnant. But so were a bunch of other people. So didn’t feel like I had any recourse at all

What things are happening that makes you think that way?

Are confidential things, that’s why I want a lawyer

Depends on your state as laws vary greatly. Google your local legal aid website as they have lots of info to point you to a proper attorney in your area

I am prior military and went to law school. I had a family to take care of while I was a student, hence I went as fast as possible to get to a paycheck, graduating in 2 years, and bypassing the standard summer clerkships. How could I get some experience strictly remote? I am w-2 working as an accountant in healthcare, have passed the bar and am working on my CPA license (studying starts at 3 am, then work FT). I would like to eventually hang a shingle as a tax lawyer, but need experience. TIA!

What do you think of Operations (think run the core of the business) vs. Bizops?

I'm leaning Bizops since it's more similar to consulting and may be a smoother transition, but what's the career path there, if you already enter at a Director level? Would Operations position me better for future roles and complement my consulting exp?

I have tried absolutely everything I can think of to limit distractions during the work day and none of it has worked. Working from home has only made it 100 times worse because now I know there are other more interesting things to be distracted by all around me. What do you do to hold focus during working hours? What will get me to be able to work for longer than 35 minutes without getting distracted?
