I think if ur hitting ur hours no one really cares if u take vacation within reason and give people plenty of notice. I think most attorneys take one week off a year, with some scattered days off throughout the year. Never known any attorneys to take a few week vaca unless it’s for a honeymoon or big event and even then it’s two weeks

how do you react to the negative feedback GT gets? I only know people in the patent attorney realm that work there. I wouldn't want to follow them off of their personalities, but they say it's great

I have a governmental entity client in Texas that wants to offer 6 weeks of paid parental leave for all employees, even those who aren’t eligible for FMLA. After the paid 6 weeks, the employee can choose to continue paid leave using any accrued personal leave.

Texas does not have a paid parental leave statute.

If paid leave above what is required is offered for parents, do we also have to provide the same benefit to other employees that are eligible for unpaid leave?
