Moving to the US.

Yea I agree with the comment above. If you are looking for a role in the US its going to be hard to find something if you aren't already living here. Thats not to say its impossible but it is very difficult to find sponsorship right now.

Negotiating a settlement. I’m at $10k, opposing counsel is at $20k. My client won’t go higher than $15k. OC has come down to 17.5k and says his client won’t budge from that. Do I offer 12.5k so we can hopefully meet in the middle at 15k? Is that how the settlement game is played? Seems dumb we can’t just say let’s meet in the middle now and be done with this. (I’m a first year, first time negotiating a settlement on my own and I don’t want to screw this up!)
