After my summer at the PDs office I feel pretty optimistic about my decision to obtain a free ride legal education. I don't know wtf all these idiots 100k+ in debt are thinking.

I think this is the reason I hear so many lawyers, when introducing one of their colleagues, use the phrase "law partner," as in "This is Butters Cocksleeve, my law partner."

One of the interns I worked with this summer claimed the Dom/Sub BDSM contracts she and her friends sign off are essentially air tight and completely enforceable so I'm not sure what the distinction of law partner really offers

A classmate of mine just got diagnosed with a very serious and potentially terminal disease. Y'all ever see any particularly effective fundraising efforts within the legal community? It seems like there are a lot of obvious directions (attempt to get the university, broader legal community, etc) involved but I was wondering if any of you had seen anything particularly clever?

This thread is full of stories of complaints against public defenders who couldn't keep their clients out of prison, you think a crazy guy won't file one against a guy who got him incarcerated?

Assistant PD with 20+ years experience in florida is $72k. Florida has a search engine where you can punch in any state employee’s name and see what they’re paid, so I looked up a guy I know.

Starting salary in Colorado is 65K with guaranteed annual increases and scheduled promotions. Depending on where you practice after COLA increases 100k+ is pretty easy to break (Or so I hear)

We've got a newborn and I honestly have no idea how people manage to have more than one child without going crazy from the sleep deprivation alone. It doesn't help that our kid was colicky and can only be soothed by expensive formulas and long car rides.

Those people have severe and ongoing traumas that they pass back to their children through their adolescent and teenage years before being resented for the remainder of their life in this beautiful process of familial bondong.

Illinois is making attorneys who don't have malpractice insurance through a firm (i.e. everyone who does doc review) do 4 hours of 'self assessment' about all that stuff. Normally CLEs are like an hour video or whatever. This is flash only and requires you to click next slide about every 15-30 seconds and otherwise stops.

A friend of mine worked in the career office of my school 10 years ago and is helping me touch up my resume a bit. We were talking on the phone this morning about starting state wages, and they’ve dropped about $10k/year from what they were then, and there’s nothing but downward pressure on those already depressed wages.

That is not the situation in Colorado. I can't speak for the rest of the nation but competition doesn't seem as severe in the rocky mountain west.
