When an attorney wants the paralegal to go to a hearing, should the pair carpool? I work for an attorney who always insists on carpooling, but I prefer to drive myself for many reasons. Should I be firm on what I am comfortable with doing or give in to carpooling?

Are any other paralegals struggling with billable hour requirements? I have 5 years of experience in corporate transactions, M&A, and real estate work, and have never had billable hour requirements. I'm in a new job now where I do and I'm nowhere near meeting them. I'm getting a lot more admin work than billable work, and it's stressing me out.

What were some effective tips or resources that helped you to learn the systems of your first firm?

Any struggling paralegals here? Do you feel like your financial situation is affecting your productivity at work? I like the work I do but the pay really sucks.

I did it! I got an in-house Paralegal position after years of working and being burned out at different law firms. I was going to leave the legal field all together because I was so burned out and depressed, but I decided to give the field one more chance if I was able to go in-house. Prayerfully, this transition will be a good one.

Is paralegal burn-out a thing? And if it is, how do you overcome it?

(1/2) I started a new job less than a month ago at a large firm with a significant pay increase. I work remotely- which is a special arrangement. They paid for my travel to their headquarters for in-person training. After interacting with my manager and some of the attorneys, I feel like I made a mistake. Manager is demeaning and rude. A bunch of the attorneys dropped not so subtle hints that people who work from home are causing all kinds of problems. I don’t know what to do.

Has anyone felt guilty when there is a slow day? What is the least billable hour you had in a day?

Corporate and IP paralegals what do you do on a daily basis and why do you think it’s so hard to break into these fields?

Hi everyone. Is it typical for the attorney to take credit for the work a paralegal does? An example: I gave some ideas about deposition questions and some observations I made (I was asked about giving suggestions) regarding a witness and the attorney mentioned that he’s the one that had these great questions/observations. Zero credit or thank you for the work I did.

So I have my bachelors in criminal justice and I just finished my paralegal certificate course today. My attorney should be making partner this year.
