I was told this before. I will look more deeply into DC’s requirement.

after three years? DC, MD, IL, Arizona.After 5 years, Texas, Colorado. These all have various guidelines on other requirements, but don’t require reciprocity.

Thank you! I’ll look into these states more deeply.

DC and then once you’ve been practicing for 5 years you can waive into like 45 states.

Hi All,

I will be joining LTI as a PMO shortly. Had few questions, are they offering any asset like laptops, headphones etc. as they are still on hybrid model, if yes, will be handed over to the employees or owned by company itself. Also, what's the average hike an employee gets in a year.

Your reply would be highly appreciated

hardest week I’ve experienced in my career (25) and I just can’t stop crying. It’s too much pressure and I don’t know how I will get through this. I worked until 9pm+ every night this week and at this point I see no balance between work and personal life. I understand there’s good days and bad but this week was insane. Im scared Im going to get fired for not being good enough and I know I’m unhealthy mentally. It’s also impacting the relationships in my life. No question just venting.

Hi, not licensed in Florida but I am hoping this bowl can help me out. My old college friend filed a case in Miami pro se.

The only info I can find is on the judge’s individual webpage’s that states a response has to be filed before the hearing date? Am I missing something?
