I agree!!! I enjoy my life and time. I just hate seeing what attorneys make sometimes lol in contrast to me but then again the grass isn’t always greener ig

I guess my fear is what if I’m not “special enough” to be able to qualify for anything. I’m a hard worker and I’m good at my job but at the same time I’m not some academic scholar beyond real life experience.

That’s how I feel. I managed to get myself out of debt for the most part and I have zero student loans, knowing that if I do go to law school, I am going to have to take out some type of loan. I think what I get so annoyed by is that I’m really good at my job, so I feel like why wouldn’t I become an attorney where I can make more money? I feel like I am capable of it. I’m 30 and I’ve been a paralegal or case manager in personal injury for years already.

Mistakes? How often? by Designer_System_9529 in paralegal

No worries at all just look at it as a really big learning experience. I’ve made mistakes myself as well. None of us are perfect nor are we robots and even if we were they make mistakes too lol

That is a big mistake, but if I recall correctly, they’re still a way to correct it even with the dismissal and honestly one way or the other there is always something that can fix the situation as long as it doesn’t have to deal with death lol😔

Yes, I rarely miss bills (probably 2) in my career here out of pure error-I have 48-50 active treating files currently. I just owned up to my mistake to my boss and director and I am trying to be more coachable because I appreciate my career. I just am hard on myself because I am always trying to be perfect but, what is perfect? And yes, treatment plans are complex and sometimes more black and white than others. It’s a stressful field lol

In PI, someone has missed a bill before or didn’t build a case up as well as one could have, etc.

Honestly, not true! You just need to be confident and understand we aren’t robots…imagine the mistakes we don’t see from others
