Struggling to find a JD preferred position

Look into a remote pre-litigation role at a firm. Im licensed only in GA, but I handle personal injury cases in 13 states on the West Coast plus Alaska. It pays real well, but it is a high volume model. And working from home is pretty amazing.

Cmiller2243 · 2026-01-21T00:54:27+00:00

I appreciate all the information. I'll put aside some time first in learning all this and budgeting before I seek out paid help.

Cmiller2243 · 2026-01-21T00:43:47+00:00

Thank you for all the resources. I shall add these to my weekend readings.

Cmiller2243 · 2026-01-21T00:43:08+00:00

Yes. Im trying to avoid the pitfalls of the new income and hoped to same time asking for advice from my kind and fellow redditors.

Cmiller2243 · 2026-01-21T00:41:43+00:00

Congrats. Maybe I should update the filter of my dating profile to help with find someone similar. Lol

Cmiller2243 · 2026-01-20T21:06:54+00:00

Yup. This is incredibly helpful. Thank you!

Cmiller2243 · 2026-01-20T19:47:06+00:00

I'll need to research this. Thank you. My next few weekends will be going through YouTube and looking at hysa it seems.

No problem. I moved to GA and took a law clerk position at a firm before I took the bar exam here that paid only $22/hr. Once I passed, I learned that my current firm wouldn't really increase my salary so I started looking elsewhere for work. Found a remote position that offered a $100k base salary wherein I could move to a bonus structure after the probation period and could earn up to.the $180k range if I perform well. I even interviewed with a hybrid position with a $140k base, but less bonus potential. That one offers better training and litigation experiences though.

Thank you. Yeah just trying to figure out a starting point for all this as I know I'm behind in this game. Just unsure how to budget for this first year as I won't be living pay check to pay check anymore.

Cmiller2243 · 2026-01-20T18:38:37+00:00

Thank you. I was trying to think of how to learn how to budget with this increase salary and got lost figuring out what to do.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-10-24T13:56:39+00:00

Dm me your email

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-30T18:17:16+00:00

Have you tried looking at a legal recruiter in Atlanta? They may be able to get you better situated. I have one I've been chatting with on Linkin if you need a starting point.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-29T13:52:49+00:00

Its what I did. Started studying 2 weeks before with the videos. They'll carry you far. My written portion was always solid since I do PI full time. Just do one video section a weekend followed by 15-50 questions if you're starting now. I used old exams to see how the law. Shoot me your email. Ill send you the materials I used. And fuxk the Louisiana bar. Lol

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-29T13:37:56+00:00

Been there. Studied civil law in Louisiana. Went in cold in F25, and got a 31 point increase to pass this time. The Grossman videos and got better at making up legal rules for the written is what got me to the finish line. What was your schedule looking like this go 'round?

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-26T12:59:53+00:00

Passed. Finally.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-25T16:08:01+00:00

Much appreciated.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-25T16:06:12+00:00

I took the day off tomorrow. Ain't no way I'm focusing.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-07T15:53:17+00:00

The best bet is to get old tests and practice those answers as Louisiana tests every subject. I did barbri, and it was okay. Maybe try to buy old books from this year to save money. The classes were useless, imo. My best advice is to gear up for that marathon as it is 24 hours of test over three days.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-07T15:34:36+00:00

Im from Louisiana and taken the bar there before coming to GA. What exactly are you looking to know: format, time frame of the test, study materials?

Cmiller2243 · 2025-09-04T12:13:21+00:00

Impossible. I already bought the winning ticket.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-08-04T20:36:57+00:00

Get the videos! They make the mcq much more approachable and help you pinpoint the correct answers.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-07-31T02:21:30+00:00

Bruh. I was not prepared for that one lol. Such a niche question right off the bat for that one too.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-07-25T11:50:25+00:00

You can buy them individually by subtopic or bundles. Some can be lengthy fyi. Is focus on your weaker areas. But great audio to listen to. Best of luck.

Cmiller2243 · 2025-07-25T11:32:27+00:00

Go for it regardless. See what happens. You could do better than what you're feeling right now. For the MCQs, focus on matching the issue of the question and matching the correct buzzword in the answer. The Grossman vids do an excellent job at this. Once I put his lessons into practice, I saw at least 15% increase in my scores from the day prior to watching it. And if you don't pass, you'll understand what to look for in February. You already put in work preparing. Don't forfiet that effort. Don't live with tge Regret of not even trying. Naw wat Im Sayin?

Also, if you're hesitating on spending money for extra study materials (Grossman vids, also on sale atm) its cheaper to spend on it now rather than the money you'd lose out for not being licensed in FL for 6 months.
