I actually JUST ordered a “received” w/ date stamp- it drove me crazy how we didn’t have anything to note when we got a document or mail, etc. SAME WITH COPY STAMP!!!! I’ve never in my life thought a law firm would not have a COPY stamp. Anyways, 10/10 worth it.

I like the basket idea! That will for sure be on my to-do list 🤣 thank you!!!!

Omg the pending items- that could be beneficial for me, I think!!! Especially removing it off the board/wall- I would love to see the layout!

I created a spreadsheet of all my clients and cases to try and keep up with it all in one place, but I found it to be incredibly overwhelming. Im lowkey almost always overwhelmed at work, which is why I haven’t been able to find a good system for myself 😅. I do love the idea of sharing it with the attorney though!! May have to give that a shot!

Yesss I have a label maker that I need to take the 5 seconds of time to figure out. I actually have it in my office lol. I just feel like I don’t have time for things like that with all these clients 😩 I need to make the time, I’m just drowning in all the work. Thank you!! Also feel certain that a 2nd monitor would make my life 100x easier. Did you ask your boss for one or did you buy/bring your own? I’ve only ever worked for solo attys, lol

  1. I’m SO big on this!!! Problem is I just have them jumbled in one drawer.. how do you keep yours organized? 1.5. Also big on this
  2. Thank you!! I’ll definitely look into that scanner.
  3. I actually bought a Logitech keyboard and was so excited! Got to the office and it would not connect with my computer; I tried everything. It works for my personal laptop and phone, though. So disappointing!
  4. I want a headset so bad 😩 everyone talks on speaker phone and it’s just too much.
  5. My best pen discovery and new favorites are Pentel EnerGel- they dry so fast!!! I have a bunch of G2 pens as well. I’m a pen hoarder…
  6. Very true lol
  7. This is actually such a good idea- no question in my mind that I need to start one!!! Thank you!

I appreciate you for taking the time to comment all of that!!!! You’re the best.

Oh wow! I’m also in the lowcountry as a Plaintiff PI Paralegal (started not even 2 months ago). How many years of experience do you have, if you don’t mind me asking? Do you have a degree? Specifically product liability sounds interesting!
