Transactional attorneys: what’s your biggest advice on how to review contracts/agreements and provide comment when you’ve never seen or drafted that particular type of agreement before? And your firm sucks at training. I’m a first year and I’ve been asked to review certain closing documents and provide comments. I’ve never done this before so how do I know which provision should stay and which should change. Wtf do I do? Lol

First understand the principal purpose of the contract and then try to figure out the hidden purpose ie how they are trying to fuck the client. Read the definitions section first

Hi everyone,
I relocated with my family to Ireland recently, one month ago, and while I got a lot of screening calls with recruiters, I did not hear back from any of them after our interview. I am still on the process of getting my work permit and I am very clear about this during the interviews, but I suspect that this is the reason why I am not getting any call back. Any tips on the first screening call with recruiters? Should I touch base with them after our interviews?
