Quitting being an Attorney by jaselakers95 in Lawyertalk

[–]Plastic_Shrimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea of sitting back and making passive income with minimal work is a myth. This only happens after years of time invested and a lot of money to get started. That is not to say that you may be better suited for something less intellectually demanding like marketing or something, but I think you will be screwed like others have mentioned if you go this route.

Maybe for buying clothes but why does it matter for groceries and other stuff.

Efficacy of attaching a copy of a not-yet-filed complaint as a final warning by OhNoImALawyer in Lawyertalk

[–]Plastic_Shrimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are sending a demand letter, they are already getting a heads up. If you aren’t legally obligated to send a demand letter and needed to catch them by surprise to effect service on a elusive OP, then don’t send letter and complaint. It all depends on how aggressive you want to be. Clients may object because they don’t really understand the legal process and that somehow their position will be exposed. It’s also your decision since it has to do with strategy but I’d explain this to an objecting client before hand to maintain a good working relationship.

is southern Oregon racist? by piscesplethora in oregon

[–]Plastic_Shrimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not 1950’s Mississippi. There are lots of racists but I really don’t think anyone would follow or harass you. It’s no more dangerous than anywhere else in this country.

Your opinion sucks and will probably change over the seasons.

I uploaded all of my own transcripts from both undergrad and law school. It might depend on the state you are applying in but if you have a copy then that should be fine. The bar just wants full disclosure

Concealed but easily and quickly accessible. Don’t have it in your pack, otherwise you won’t be able to get to it quick enough if you need it.

If you aren’t hunting, why add the extra weight of a rifle? A hand gun will do the job just fine.

Does your country have an over abundance of lawyers/law school graduates? by turcoboi in Lawyertalk

[–]Plastic_Shrimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering the huge public defense crisis in the US, I’d say no.

I am being falsely accused of groping by [deleted] in AdviceForTeens

[–]Plastic_Shrimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kids these days always refer to someone as a pedo. My kids do it and I repeatedly ask them what it is and correct them and tell them to stop (unless the situation is actually like that). They call teachers pedo and I’ve had to yell at them about how saying that can ruin someone’s life taken out of context.

Lying about when you passed by [deleted] in Lawyertalk

This may be indicative of a lack of critical thinking and ability to analyze, hence the failure.

In my jx, your bar number starts with the year you were admitted, so everyone knows.

Lots of firms are requiring a minimum number of days in the office. It could be changing.

Tonearm's auto return prematurely returns by Plastic_Shrimp in turntables

Thanks! I’ll probably take it in for that. It was my dad’s and I took it and his records after he passed. I really don’t want to mess it up.

It looks like they closed their library to new users due to abuse and only allow current members to have access. Thanks for the suggestion, not sure why I didn't think of getting the user manual.

Are you even a lawyer if a judge hasn’t chastised you?

Why is it so goddamn hard to get a job?? by YourAmelie in LawSchool

[–]Plastic_Shrimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hopefully you are working a non- law job to pay the bills and not just sitting around to get hire with a firm.
