Any lady lifters out there dating someone who doesn't lift? I love my boyfriend dearly. I also look like I could take him down in a fight. He's a distance runner so he's pretty lean.

Is it viable to change from litigation to transactional in a major metropolitan city? Looking to pivot into transactional from civil litigation but have an outstanding offer for a litigation position. If you’ve done it, do you have suggestions ??

I am currently working for a city and have been with my current position for about a year. Work-life balance and colleagues are great. I came from private practice prior to my current position. There’s a strong demand for laterals now; and I am thinking about going back to private practice because current salary is substantially lower (about 40% lower) than what I can get in private practice. Has anyone here thought about going back to private practice for the salary boost? 

Wondering if anyone has any insight into making the switch from biglaw lit to a federal agency job (not DOJ). Looking for something that would be research / writing heavy. I’m checking USAJobs for openings but is there anywhere I can figure out a day in the life of an attorney at various agencies?

I could use some guidance on how to transition out of firm life into a government role. Prior to law: four years working for a state and a city, and four years before that worked at a consulting agency strictly serving government agencies and cities/counties. You’d think this would parlay well into the government roles I am applying for, but so far no dice. I’m entering my fourth year practicing as a lawyer. I love admin law, have some litigation and some transaction work as a lawyer. Thanks!

Anyone else have elected officials who think "the Rona" is an Obama and Clinton hoax?

Advice on giving notice to leave for private? I feel a lot of guilt both about leaving the agency and government, generally.

I practice LGL. I plan on setting a meeting with my boss to discuss salary. I am coming up on a year in a couple months. I’m prepping for the meeting now. I want to put together a list of my duties, assignments, “wins,” etc. My plan is to have all of this on paper so that he will have a reference point and he can walk away from our meeting with all of the info I would like him to consider. How would you organize this document and do you have any other suggestions of info I should include?

I plan on applying for a chief deputy clerk of court federal position. Would like to chat with someone about resume/interview expectations. This is my first time applying at the federal level.

Has anyone taken a federal appropriations law class and is willing to share course materials or outline? Anything that’s not the full text of the red book 😄

generally speaking, do government agencies actually demand more from you if you’re in a higher vs. a lower salary tier/division e.g., I vs. II, II vs. III, III vs. IV, etc.? Perhaps there’s a difference between maybe I and III but is there a significant difference in responsibilities and performance expectations between II and III, or III and IV for example?

Anyone get public service loan forgiveness? The stats of only 1% qualifying is always wild to me. I know people have made blatant errors (not make sure their jobs qualify, not consolidating their loans, etc) but still....

Hello,

I am a 3rd year insurance defense attorney with product and premise liability experience. Due to long-COVID, I am likely to lose my job.

The plan is to find a government position that would involve more substantive litigation and trial work, then leverage that into the private sector a few years down the line.

Any advice would be appreciated regarding networking, where to start, etc. Thank you.

I have couple years of insurance defense experience, mostly product and premise liability work, and am transitioning to the NYC law department.

Any advice would be appreciated!

In the interview process for a City Attorney office position. Is it ok to reach out to a current attorney in the office to get intel? For context, I don’t actually have a connection to this person other than I learned through the interview process that they too are from my law school. High likelihood that that person tells the interviewers I’ve reached to get intel. Is it OK/fair game for me to contact this person or not?
