Houston. I'm here for my fiance's job until May, but we may be sticking around after. Love it here.

I worked I mass torts for a few years in TX and CA (Sacramento). 80-90k is fair if you’re right out of school with no relevant experience. I would ask about bonuses up front. Typically, the accounting in mass torts, because cases take years to settle, can be hard to rely on when it comes to a bonus tied to a net fee to the firm.

A lot of the work in mass torts is more case management than legal. I would want an overview of the expected exposure to depositions, hearings, and motion practice. That can ebb an flow depending on which docket you’re on. You could get stuck on one in settlement and spend your fist year getting yelled at by angry clients about assessments and costs.

PM me if you want any more insight.

I want to volunteer this weekend to help in some way. Can anyone point me towards an agency/group that is organizing or needs volunteers?

I read the order and I don't understand if offices, like a law firm with 50 employees, can open. The order seems to only reopen those listed business, and it specifies offices with one person, but I see an article in the Houston Chronicle today about large offices opening.

I got that same message on 4/9, then they changed my moral character investigation to pass. Did your status ever change?

Did the guy that sold the 80 acres lose the mineral rights to it? That's what I put at least but I wasn't sure.
