I’m stuck on this research in NJ - the guy is an employee of the insured. Anyone have a pointer?
When an attorney accepts service on behalf of a client, but the client hasn’t actually been located / doesn’t have an attorney client relationship yet - does it count?

We have this client who was previously represented by another attorney who accepted service in his absence, but never found the guy.

We want to argue he hasn’t been served

Sounds like he couldn’t have had authority to accept service (and likely has an ethics problem).

I assume it doesn’t count since he doesn’t have his own attorney client relationship…

Hey guys… I’m a case worker in child safety and I’m someone who loves being outdoors/dies at a desk all day. I’m hoping to organise that at least once a week I can go to a cafe and catch up on all my case notes that need to go into the system.
So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

What exactly say to HR on call for counter offer negotiation. Any sample would be helpful, having a hard time to find the right words as the right choice of words is crucial here.

My firm typically does insurance defense, but we take plaintiffs cases here and there.

This is my first experience with this, but it’s hard for me to reach my hours as is, without spending time on non billable cases like this with no assurance that I’ll see billable credit at the end.
