It’s your time off, use it whenever you want IMO. Just make sure you communicate it early and often so no one is left hanging.

I don’t think a day or two matters. Probably don’t want to take a week off during your first case

Just have an open conversation about it with staffing/ your case manager. If you get a lot of push back, then would probably not. No harm in asking though!

Take it whenever you need, just make sure you’re open about it. I started in July and took full week off in September for my sister’s wedding

Seconding BCG1 - I went on a week of planned vacation two months in, wasn't an issue at all. (FWIW - in a European office.)

I’ve heard that you shouldn’t ask for a vacation in the first three months. Six months is too long.

You can use it when you want but I would wait a bit 6-8 mts after you start. Tell your manager early. Also if you know before you start tell them then. That way they know what to expect.

I think that is fine. They are used to that sort of thing. Just let them know ASAP.

Any attorneys in the Bay Area practicing just in estate planning (not litigation), can you give your take on whether you would get enough business to do only planning? I'm currently doing family law and I want to start moving away from litigation. For family law there really isn't a non litigation role that produces enough business (i.e. mediation). I do okay, but definitely have to take on more litigation than I prefer. I was thinking estate planning might be a good addition to the mix.

Hello. I recently accepted a position as Assistant Nurse Manager at a busy Cancer Center in Brooklyn. I have leadership roles such as charge nurse over the 8 years I’ve been an RN so Ive never had an official management role. I have my BSN and OCN. The AVP agreed to match my current salary which is 6 figures because I refused to accept the salary he was offering for $5K less. Did I accept an unfair offer or should I expect that because of my lack of experience in management? Thanks
