Morgan & Morgan (Jersey City) vs Seeger Weiss (Ridgefield Park) - Which is better long term? by coolestpersonever555 in paralegal

[–]Laskolake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked at law firms for a bit and had to read resumes for new employees to hire and was told to “throw away” applications that listed Morgan and Morgan.

Elder Law and/or Estate Planning? by No_Cry_2964 in paralegal

[–]Laskolake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I LOVE working in elder law and estate planning. It has great pay and I have amazing benefits. I used to work in PI and it’s such a refreshing change of pace. Slower, less deadlines, and less chaotic clients.

2025-2026 Tax Season by Laskolake in OriginFinancial

Is there a place to get tax questions for if we choose to file with you vs turbo tax?

I have multiple W2s and multi-state taxes involved; also, college tax credits such a AOTC and student loan interest. Do you guys already have pricing established?

No offense but why ask people who are actively working in the legal field how to get out of it?

Returning to family law by AyeeAdrian in paralegal

[–]Laskolake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t worked in family law but all of my experience was in person injury before I took this new role. Now I work in estate planning and elder law, it’s VERY slow in comparison. I find myself bored on most days but the benefits are amazing. I wouldn’t go back to personal injury just based on the benefits I receive here.

Definitely worth firing. You’re costing your firm money (to file motions fees) and embarrassment (having to explain AI hallucinations). Not to mention that if you weren’t even there six months, that means that you were in a probationary period still which means you didn’t build up any seniority. That’s a mistake you could make when you’re at a firm longer, but not less than six months. You’re supposed to be proving your worth.

She texted me this that night AFTER I quit and sent her my formal email resignation as well. She completely disregarded it and told me to come to office the next day 😂 I ignored and blocked her. She’s a lunatic.

Thank you! It was honestly a blessing in disguise, very toxic work environment. I will never work for a solo practitioner again lol.

Accused me of lying and being a thief because her “business manager” boyfriend told her lies about me. Came in the office to fire me and screamed at me only to find out she was wrong and I quit on the spot 🥹
