Job Responsibilities
Handle all types of civil litigation, ranging from garden
variety car accident cases to complex insurance coverage matters
and appeals. That said, personal injury litigation occuppies
the bulk of my practice (about 85%).
|
Uppers
The satisfaction of a job well done, and the financial compensation that comes
along with it.
|
Downers
The absurd hours I work, which takes away from time with my
family.
|
Lifestyle
See above. My job requires a huge time commitment, and if you aren't prepared
to make that commitment, you are not going to succeed. It's as simple as that.
Being in the legal profession, I am unfortunately in a shirt and tie just about
every day.
|
Compensation
I will not give out specifics. Let's just say that I don't need food stamps.

Advice to Jobseekers
Don't just go to law school because you can't think of anything
else to do! That will make for an unhappy law school
experience, and more importantly, an even more miserable career.
