If you are thinking of starting a law practice or growing one with little or no capital, you need to get the book, “Starting & Growing a Law Practice without Breaking the Bank.
It was written based on personal experience and research. I started my practice 11 years ago in the middle of the 2008/2009 recession with about $500 and I have grown the practice significantly over the years using affordable and available resources.
I also coach solo practitioners and small firm attorneys. https://www.amazon.com/Starting-Growing-Practice-Without-Breaking/dp/1099523303

Ask your manager if you can follow up with HR or xyz person directly to free up his plate.
Were you told when the raise would be effective?

The squeaky wheel gets the oil. I would continue to follow up at an appropriate cadence every (2-3 weeks depending on how often you talk to your manager 1:1). If you haven’t already, I would also ask if the raise will be effective as of the review meaning you’ll get back paid for the time between your review and when they finalize the number. At a certain point, I would go to HR and get some clarity.
Depending on the size of the company the approval process can take a while since it probably has multiple levels to go thru. If your boss is a good person they are already fighting to make sure it goes thru. I know I did with my people when this occurred but it did take us 3 - 4 months to get everything approved. Mind you I work for a large corporation. I would follow up every 2 weeks.
I think you may need to look for roles that aren’t advertised. Like reaching out to people socially, randomly, and networking. It’s always easier to find a role if you are referred.
