OC Project 🐟. Does anybody fly into LAX vs using SNA (Santa Ana)? Project is in Newport Beach and I can get cheaper/direct flights from home airport vs connections and expensive flights through SNA?

No layover or cost is worth the commute from LAX to Newport.

From the area. Getting in/out of LAX will make you want to get far away from civilization

Yup. The LAX to Newport commute is a soul sapper.

SNA is basically in Newport Beach, the airport is within 5-10 minutes from wherever you are staying

I’ve done both - LAX to/from OC / Newport is a PITA - and may be more time consuming than a connection to SNA.

That commute from LAX to Newport Beach can be killer (+1hr) —just go to SNA and deal with the limited flights..

There is also an airport in Long Beach. Still small but could be an option .

I did a year long project in OC (from FL) and tried both. SNA is worth the layover and cost. Getting to/from LAX is terrible unless your taking redeyes (even then it’s pretty rough)

Also are Uber’s easily accessible or should I rent a car?

Rent a car for sure. Uber’s never seem to know where they are going for some odd reason

I fly through LAX when there are no direct flights to SNA. I live near SNA but work East Coast. But if a good one hour layover through Vegas or Phoenix, that makes it worth not commuting out of LAX which is a cluster.

Yesterday he said he found a UK project having an onsite opportunity and said that the respective manager will contact.

Is it important to offer support staff that speak a foreign language or is it sufficient if the attorney can communicate with the client? We had one bilingual paralegal and another who is not. The bilingual one left us some time ago.

Thus, we are left with one who can’t communicate with about 25% of our clients. And there just isn’t enough revenue to support two paralegals despite my partner pushing us to hire.
