Working in ID doing asbestos litigation. Current salary is 85k with a billable requirement of 45 hours a week. According to my billing sheet, I made the firm 20k in a month. Is my compensation fair or am I being underpaid? If so, what would be more fair compensation. Been a lawyer for 2.5 years now

You’re grossly underpaid. It’s not fair. That’s ID. Now is a good time to transition.

The rule of thumb is typically you’re paid 1/3 of your fees received, so your probably overpaid for your production.

Also I’ll add it’s not 1/3 of what you bill it’s usually 1/3 of fees received.

One constantly is under threat of having land annexed by Israel, but it isn't the one in the peace agreement, and Netanyahu has already said this agreement doesn't alter plans

I work in insurance. I was working for an Allstate agent and was fired the day after my grandmothers funeral for being “unenthusiastic in our morning meeting”. Now I’m having anxiety searching for a job. I don’t think I want to sell anymore yet every single recruiter I interview with says I should, that I have a “salesperson mentality”. I’m burnt out. Has anyone else felt this way? How did handle it? Is there a different career path I can take or am I destined to sell insurance forever?
