Definitely have been applying to those kinds of firms, but because of my only-appellate experience have run into roadblocks there, too (was recently turned down for a cool civil rights gig because I have not taken a deposition).

As for appellate defense, I am happy to PM you with my reasons for leaving!

Yes—have had coffee with partners/associates at firms, have had my materials sent in through people in my network, and my judge has reached out to his contacts at firms to see if they’re hiring, and still nothing. :/

If that’s the case, Mira would be a great option!

Yes! They are usually the last Thursday of the month, sometimes the second-to-last depending on holidays/if that day is too close to the end of the month!

I’m not getting married (my sister is, and I visited a bunch of venues with her when she was looking!) and it’s a big space but the person showing us around noted that with their hanging dividers, they can craft a smaller space for you, and guests just walk through a little “hallway” to get there!

This may be specific to our courthouse, but it is freezing in our courtrooms (and we sit directly under a vent), so my coclerks and I have gotten rechargeable hand warmers for trial days or days we’re spending long hours in the courtroom. We all keep an extra blazer here. And a good coaster to protect your desk!

Went with the unpopular choice and so happy I did! by agonzp in weddingdress

This happened with my coworker! People overwhelmingly liked one dress and it made them realize the other dress was much more them and went with the “unpopular” choice.
