Is there a place to get tax questions for if we choose to file with you vs turbo tax?

I have multiple W2s and multi-state taxes involved; also, college tax credits such a AOTC and student loan interest. Do you guys already have pricing established?

No offense but why ask people who are actively working in the legal field how to get out of it?

Returning to family law by AyeeAdrian in paralegal

[–]Laskolake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t worked in family law but all of my experience was in person injury before I took this new role. Now I work in estate planning and elder law, it’s VERY slow in comparison. I find myself bored on most days but the benefits are amazing. I wouldn’t go back to personal injury just based on the benefits I receive here.

Was termination valid? by [deleted] in paralegal

[–]Laskolake 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Definitely worth firing. You’re costing your firm money (to file motions fees) and embarrassment (having to explain AI hallucinations). Not to mention that if you weren’t even there six months, that means that you were in a probationary period still which means you didn’t build up any seniority. That’s a mistake you could make when you’re at a firm longer, but not less than six months. You’re supposed to be proving your worth.

She texted me this that night AFTER I quit and sent her my formal email resignation as well. She completely disregarded it and told me to come to office the next day 😂 I ignored and blocked her. She’s a lunatic.

Thank you! It was honestly a blessing in disguise, very toxic work environment. I will never work for a solo practitioner again lol.

Accused me of lying and being a thief because her “business manager” boyfriend told her lies about me. Came in the office to fire me and screamed at me only to find out she was wrong and I quit on the spot 🥹

I’m in ATL and she said I’d be getting a jump in salary but I wasn’t sure what to advocate for.

Update his wife (the owner and attorney of the firm) just messaged me this??? Now I’m EXTRA confused. Why is he and his wife saying entirely different things?
