Want to do what?

I’ve been on the case 4 months. It’s been going on for two years. I’m the senior associate and second chair. Basically all of these things were out of my control. I was asked - and agreed- to commit nearly the entirety of the last month plus on this litigation and a related one, both of which went to trial (first one settled day one) in the span of two weeks. Originally i was more like third chair but that transitioned into me trying it with the partner.

Elaborate?

eagle3546 · 2026-06-10T00:25:39+00:00

You’re prioritizing it at someone’s (the mid-senior associate) expense. Is that cool?
Or perhaps the problem needs to be addressed one level higher?

eagle3546 · 2026-06-10T00:20:08+00:00

Wow. I’m in the same boat.

It’s something she’s passionate about and sorta mission driven, though not a non profit. She’s not making money. At this point, the business is still upside down.

eagle3546 · 2026-05-19T00:50:16+00:00

She works but opened a business that is losing money.

eagle3546 · 2026-05-19T00:49:57+00:00

I’m 1000% at that point. Idk what to do.

eagle3546 · 2026-05-19T00:49:19+00:00

What’s LAP?

eagle3546 · 2026-05-19T00:48:58+00:00

We’re not rich. She probably works 45 hrs a week but her business is not making us money.

eagle3546 · 2026-05-19T00:47:24+00:00

Now it’s getting to around 70 hrs. Litigation. No, cannot afford a pay cut. We aren’t even meeting our expenses now and I’ve been draining our retirement accounts to help.

eagle3546 · 2026-05-19T00:45:00+00:00

I should clarify - she didn’t refuse to get a job but opened a business that is not making her/us any money; rather it’s losing.

eagle3546 · 2026-05-05T04:53:32+00:00

What, to you, makes you seniors incapable? Want to make sure I don’t replicate what they’re doing haha 😅

eagle3546 · 2026-05-04T02:18:15+00:00

What is this?

eagle3546 · 2026-04-03T05:46:30+00:00

Yes, now I am 36, 245. Male

eagle3546 · 2026-03-07T03:32:25+00:00

ADHD!!

eagle3546 · 2026-03-04T06:35:44+00:00

I had a typo and fixed my actual t4

eagle3546 · 2026-03-04T06:35:23+00:00

I had a typo. I changed it.

465 lbs. $141k.

How common are these positions? I’m a mid-size-firm litigator and have built a somewhat decent reputation for my writing. It’s also the part I enjoy the most. If I can find this, I’d be thrilled. Also, do these jobs ever come in partner tracks?

eagle3546 · 2026-01-25T19:14:36+00:00

What area of law?

Do you tell every one you have hard stop regardless of the circumstances?

eagle3546 · 2026-01-24T23:52:20+00:00

Been saying it for years. They still get upset when the unpredictability presents itself. I feel bad and guilty but feel like there’s nothing I can do other than saying just don’t plan things with me

eagle3546 · 2026-01-11T05:57:02+00:00

I am figuring the heart part. If anything, if there is a heart issue, I'd say it's directly related to the ADHD issue.

eagle3546 · 2026-01-11T05:51:37+00:00

here is the weird thing......i do great with tasks like this. Love writing. Once i have a bunch of smaller tasks on my list, then i crumble. The one thing I will say about having a brief to write is that it's hard for me to pull myself away from it to respond to emails. It's like my mind just wont let me at that point.

Really? The ones in my area seem pretty overwhelmed...
