The pastor? Doesn’t seem to be ruthless enough to be a good trial lawyer. But I hadn’t heard of him before and googled him… so I don’t know anything about him.

@author what’s your source? This is wildly inaccurate.

What about defense side? Are buzbee and brewer just big names, or are they considered elite trial lawyers?

Brewer is elite. Buzbee is a blowhard.

Highly Technical Market Sell-Off - Though, it has picked up over lunch and I suspect that short term turn is in near. Old floortrader told me once, never trust a market that is making new session highs or lows during lunch. That's not normal. This might not be a normal day; but we do need to rebound to get another opportunity into the short trend. So, count on it. The last draw is more suspect as it hasn't been proven to exist yet. So, we will see how we look when we trade 9855.75 on NQ.

1YOE medical device NPI Lead looking for salary perspective

Mechanical engineering grad, joined a medical device startup that I had done co-ops at. 8mo into full-time, pivoted from engineering into more of an operations role doing new product introduction (NPI), now with 3 direct reports.
