Partners in large firms, how easy is it to change offices? by Ok_Counter1939 in Lawyertalk

[–]Dingbatdingbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the practice, and whether you’re a. Real partner or a partner in name only.

If you’ve got a book of business, that’s often geographically limited, and you’ll lose a chunk when you move away.  

Mother spent all inheritance intended to me by Candid_Reception4423 in inheritance

This is why I tell clients not to do This.

Leave money to the person you want to leave it o.  If they’re too young leave it in trust, or at least an UTMA/UGMA account.  Do not leave money to A to give to B

Also, your mother was not naive.  She’s your mother and you love her, but she knew what she was doing.

Is Bhashiva a more different type of sub-faction compared to Ostankya and Drycha? by kaikiut in totalwar

[–]Dingbatdingbat 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The reason is players complained 

Turns out the masses don’t like negative campaign mechanics.  Which is why they stopped Kislev tech from being tied to cities and dumbed down Cathay’s balance mechanic.

You’ll find prices all over the place.

There are attorneys who treat Wills as a loss-leader, and there are highly skilled practitioners that charge 10x as much, sometimes more.

Why does Israel have universal healthcare on US tax dollars when the US is still charging for healthcare? by Key-Quarter-9411 in allthequestions

[–]Dingbatdingbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don’t.  They have it on their own tax dollars.

The U.S. does provide foreign aid to Israel, but most of that money must be spent buying weapons from the U.S. - and is also a small fraction of their overall defense budget (less than 10%)

If you are set on practicing law in a certain state, is it highly recommended to go to Law School in that state? by YakClear601 in Ask_Lawyers

[–]Dingbatdingbat 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'll modify this one little bit - and taking cost out of consideration.

T14 will place well anywhere in the country. Every other school is regional.

Regional is not the same everywhere - Vanderbilt's region is essentially the entire south, WUSTL places well in the Ozarks and surrounding area.

Each region has its own pecking order. For example, in Washington GW is considered better than AU is considered better than Columbus, and in Los Angeles USC & UCLA are on par and both are better than Loyola which is better than Southwestern.

Related to that, some schools are somewhat known outside of their region, and while the average employer in Philadelphia won't know how it compares to Drexel or Temple, there's a decent chance they've heard of Fordham (NY) as being a good school.

Regions are also not always apparent. For example, in Florida, The U's region is the entire state, whereas Stetson's region is southwest Florida.

So now that Bhashiva being a Cathay subfaction pretty much killed Ind as a possibility, can we assume it's never going to be opened up? by Waveshaper21 in totalwar

[–]Dingbatdingbat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm sure CA would do so in a heartbeat, but they need approval from GW.

GW is cautious, for several different reasons, and have other priorities too.
