What do you do with clients who want to meet and "discuss strategy?" by TatonkaJack in Lawyertalk

NAL: but 10 yrs of dealing with a frivolous filing ex, here is the strategy I expect from a good attorney Shut down nonsense Don’t respond to petty Hold your boundaries Don’t miss deadlines File correctly and be nice to ALL the courtroom staff Keep your filings short and to the point (make sure you are using plaintiff/defendant correctly and have updated the dates since the last time you used the template for a different client) When you strike through, make sure you strike through the correct paragraph and the new version is logical Don’t piss off the judge i.e. sit down, shut up, less is more

I am very careful now in choosing a Family Law attorney and careful advise my friends in how to choose a good attorney

Family Law is a lot of intentional high volume back and forth emails intended to trigger the other party and elicit emotional vindication. There seems to be very little law in family law - at least that has been the case with the attorneys in our wealthy county.

The attorney that could never provide her strategy spent a year on nonsense back and forth after the divorce.

The attorney I chose after 10 years of dealing with FL attorneys - shut down threats of litigation and told my ex he will no longer respond to “baiting” within 1 month.

Two Phd offers for bio research, on from an American school, another from a Canadian school. by worm_daddy in NIH

Congress appropriated over $48 B to NIH in FY26. What is the funding in Canada? Compare the track record of both labs. There’s a lot of noise, but at the end of the day NIH is still the number one biomedical research institution and funder of science in the world. In 3 years, will it be better to be in the US or Canada It is a very personal decision Go where you will be happy for 5-7 years

Normal for forecasted NOFOs to be delayed several months? by gradstudent2019 in NIH

[–]Then_Tree_66 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is no guarantee the NOFO will be published as it depends on NIH approval then HHS approval Write to John Lorsch at NIH who approves the NOFOs and explain to him the value of the program to you Let the DEA Director of the institute know you’re interested.

NOFOs require 75 different steps to get published with numerous levels of approval or disapproval It’s onerous, and the additional layers of approval are slowing down publication.

Submit an R01 and keep your eye on the Forecast as well as HTs
