AboutThe first LJ community for practicing lawyers.
So you're out of law school. You've slogged through the bar exam(s). Where are you now?
Attorneys, speak your mind! How's work? Do you hate the billable hour? What are your aspirations? How do you balance your work and personal lives? Is in-house really that cushy? Can you go part-time and still make partner? Is it difficult for a liberal to work for a government agency under a Republican administration? Good gossip about firms? Anyone? Anything? What do you think of the race for the White House? Know any good jokes? (What's the difference between a lawyer and an engineer?)
Whatever comes to mind, feel free to speak here. Just refrain from flaming (we're all professionals, right?), do not post privileged information, and try not to stalk anyone. Otherwise, have fun!
NOTE: THIS COMMUNITY IS FOR ATTORNEYS ONLY.
This is not a forum in which to seek legal advice (free or not). All such posts will be deleted by the moderator. Also, trolling and inappropriate posts will not be tolerated - any users engaging in such activity will be banned without notice.
