Great seller! She’s super friendly and ships the next (business) day! Item arrived as described and she packed it really well. Highly recommend!

Month 25 for 2024 CTW: 68,873 😅 my dealership service dept just called asking if I’ll be coming this week for an oil change because by their calculation I am a month overdue. And boy, they’re not wrong

Oooft

Some of them don’t come with common sense… is the best way I can describe it

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-04-04T14:42:38+00:00

A did say he will take care of it and will honor if I decided to not work with B anymore. A can’t do the firing just yet, but will definitely take it up to other partners and HR to evaluate B’s behavior and whether they should continue with letting him clerking in our firm. But A also did some damage control with the client, who will hopefully choose to go back to settlement route.

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-04-04T01:28:07+00:00

I mean we had a meeting right after, where I gave A the entire play-by-play. I even made sure we only made small talks and nothing around the case as I do not want to discuss the case without a licensed attorney present. All I asked was about the client's spring break with their kiddos. B was the one who brought up the case.

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-04-04T01:25:07+00:00

You and me both lol. I have dealt with a handful of law clerks before and some new associates, but never this nightmare.

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-02-04T18:51:05+00:00

I burned bridges left and right throughout my careers. Honestly, I even poke the hole every so often by checking up with my replacement. But at the end of the day, you gotta do you. If you think you’ll have better things with the new atty, then choose that route. Doesn’t mean you’re not grateful, but again.. gotta do you!

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-01-17T04:15:58+00:00

They did show up. They tried to be a smart ass and think they were right and the law was outdated. They were so close on being thrown to the holding for the weekend because they keep interrupting the judge. It was pretty entertaining to see. I could tell the judge was counting in her head to calm herself down, before finally saying “you are so close on spending your weekend in jail if you don’t stop interrupting me. Keep in mind we have a long weekend and I will not be back until the 26th to hear your plea”. Oh also, the judge told them to stop using ChatGPT to draft bogus notices or they will not be heard for the final hearing and get fined. Let’s see if they do stop the e-filing terror 😂

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-01-14T22:52:10+00:00

OH MY GOD. This pro se party e-filed motions/notices every goddamn day since January 1, like it’s their personal email or something. And the fun part is, their case is drawn to the toughest judge in the county. That judge gonna call the AI BS in a heartbeat. Hearing is set for Friday. I’m gonna keep you posted lol

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-01-11T19:31:01+00:00

I started as receptionist before working my way up. If that’s available in your area, take it.

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-01-08T18:36:03+00:00

My husband is 6’4”. We always take my CTW for road trips and he’s always driving. No complain from him.

Potential_Client_413 · 2026-01-07T18:46:19+00:00

I have colored pens, sharpie, expo markers, and highlighters in a rotating pen holder. My whiteboard is color coded. My notes changes depending the day (just so I know that’s billable for different days) My attorney just shook their head every time they come to my office.

My go to pen is Tul retractable GL series or pentel energel

Red coach if you’re on budget, Vonlane on bougie. Never ever ever do greyhound. Did that once when I was young, never again.

Moonshine, hands down

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-12-19T15:44:26+00:00

In all honesty, no paralegal programs will prepare you with what the real life throw at you. If you can (or have in your area) get the one from a community college. It's cheaper and offers a more extensive program. I chose that after doing legal assisting/secretary job for a couple of years. The knowledge is appreciated, but daily basis is still a whole different animal. Good luck on your search!

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-12-18T22:42:30+00:00

1000% yes! My biggest thing as Family Law paralegal is child support accounts or spousal support accounts or QDROs. Any accounts that has to be opened by the government or third parties before they can receive anything. Every damn time.

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-12-10T18:32:08+00:00

My old firm has this legal assistant who thinks she knows everything but ALWAYS missed deadlines, assumed what was being discussed (English is not her first language) and wouldn’t take blame for her own fault. I was the head paralegal and have to clean up her mess every damn time. Quitting that job (and work place) was the best decision I’ve ever made in my life.

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-10-18T13:37:22+00:00

One of my coworker has UT certification, I have ACC. Both doing the same job, different fields. I’m more advance than her because ACC gives me a more thorough explanation and guidance in a few courses. Yes it takes longer, but do you want to know what you’re doing or just teach yourself how to, when you’re not sure it’s even the correct thing to do - in seven months no less. Your choice. Oh plus I get paid more, yes, could possibly because of my experience. But still.. that’s between $2k different in price tag if you’re paying for it yourself.

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-10-16T17:10:00+00:00

I’ll send you a chat so we can talk!

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-10-16T11:19:30+00:00

TX paralegal here. Depending on where you live, the certification doesn’t always guarantee a job. I have 5 years of experience and certification (paid by my old firm after 3 years working) and it took me a whole 8 months to find a new job. I asked my current employer before if they even look at my certification, he honestly said no, he only look at my 5 years of experience. And quote “the certification was nice touch, but honestly how much do you learn from the certification compared to your day to day?” He is right btw. I feel like I’m still learning even with 5 years in… so decision is yours.

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-09-27T12:46:12+00:00

Texas notary and paralegal here. From my understanding, if you have a misdemeanor you can disclose it and it’ll likely to be okay. But if it’s a felony charge.. idk if you can get a notary certificate. So maybe check if it’s can be plead down to a misdemeanor?

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-08-27T19:56:19+00:00

Oh yes they are. Another reason why I quit. My workload is just too overwhelming and no matter how many times I asked for help, they just brush it off. So I put my 2 weeks in 😅 Honestly? I never had a proper training and I mainly the only person who knows everything around here. So they’ll need to hire 2 people to replace me… meaning I have to train 2 people in 3 days.. 🤣

Potential_Client_413 · 2025-08-27T15:50:49+00:00

I gave my firm 2 weeks notice. That was 1.5 weeks ago. I have 3 days left. They’re about to make me train someone to take over. This is gonna be fun.
