I used to be an adjuster, why would you choose that over litigation?

like

Because litigation is stressful. There are a lot of former attorneys in claims roles. I’m asking because obviously every job has pros/cons. There are reasons people leave. So I’m curious what the day to day is like.

I have multiple friends that did. They love the improved WLB and the biggest drawback is the pay cut.

Yeah I hear it’s not great, though currently I’m undervalued in my current position/experience level, so who knows!

I actually have so many questions about this…would it be impossible to get back into litigation as an attorney after 2-3 years as an adjuster/claims representative. I feel beyond burned out.

Received a job offer. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on a concern I had about it. It's an entry level position, and I don't have much experience. The billables are 2040 a year. For billable hours in civil litigation and insurance defense, is 2040 hours for a 1st year associate on the high end in this field for a small or midsize firm? It seems like most attorneys I know have minimum requirements of around 1800. The compensation is around 80k a year.
