since we do not know OP’s situation we can’t say whether her firing was legal or illegal. OP, you should talk to an attorney if you’re so inclined.

i think that’s what we call pretext but idk, I’m just an employment defense lawyer in California

Op here. Yes Cali. I just think the timing of my firing was really weird.
Having looked into it because I wanted to get rid of a paralegal, it's really easy to fire an pregnant person. The only stipulation is that the employer has a reason that is not pregnancy related.

What? Shut up.

Obviously, not offering any legal advice or anything but aren't discrimination claims kind of hard to make, especially if they did their paper trail of bad review -> out? Did someone direct a slur at you? Also if you plan to pursue other firms, playing ball by signing the severance agreement? Of co...

yes a severance agreement will almost always include a general release. That’s kind of the point.

Congratulations, anon!

I think you are feeling like you got this possible offer and there is some change going down at your firm and you’re not sure if you’ll be able to leave with the same opportunity if 6-12 months so you’re getting anxious (totally understandable). But there’s no reason to think you won’t have the oppo...

Everything I just read points to not leaving and seeing how things go at your current firm for the next 6 months to a year.

Also Rockstar going to his client doesn’t really mean the work is leaving. when work comes up that he can’t do alone/doesn’t have time for he’ll feed it to your firm.

Omg lol

I am toying with two different personal statement concepts and could use some advice on which is better. Anyone willing to read both of them and let me know what you think?

Are you in school trying to get a clerkship or applying to school and working on your personal statement? It can’t be both.

No? This would be serious TTTTT behavior.

If you're looking to get into employer side labor/employment law: go to hell you rat fuck.

First of all

and second, these are the on-topics. If you want to debate the merits of employer or employee-side L&E, go for it. But do it respectfully and without name calling. Thanks.

This is almost criminally unfunny.

okay true but FFFFFederal question was a tiny bit funny.

Yeah insurance requires task/phase billing and more details (with lower rates and more cuts to bills 🙄). Private clients still don’t allow block billing but are less annoying about their bills. I generally have to itemize and can barely ever block bill. Both things in the OP are considered block bil...

No, I work at a boutique firm. We have a summer program but still interview 3Ls if we have a need for associates.

Is labor just a different way of saying union stuff or if not what’s does it mean exactly?

Yeah it’s just a different way of saying union stuff

welcome beep! <3

Saul- like I said above, I do mainly employment and only deal with union issues if they come up in my employment cases. All I can say is labor is a very niche practice and I’m not sure I’d just jump into it without any experience.

They have petite sizes and I am very petite (4’11) but busty. I have both petite and reg dresses from them that I love.
My absolute favorite piece from them is their original jacket/sweater thing. Dresses up anything. Dammit, now I want to shop. lol.

The jardigan! Also my fave.
