(Also I’m only 1.5yrs old in my career so I’m definitely still new, and I have previous experience as a project assistant).

I work until 7p at least every night. Top 10 family law firm.

I hate due diligence requests. Every time my email notification pings I want to cry. I’m already going as fast as I can.

I did it! I got an in-house Paralegal position after years of working and being burned out at different law firms.

Prayerfully, this transition will be a good one.
