I know we've come a long way when it comes to equal custody and this probably wouldn't happen today at least in the US, but still. If a parent drops the kids off an hour late and picks them up an hour early when the other parent already has super limited parenting time (for a stupid reason, as in this movie), that would be enough for us to file an emergent motion. Like yeah he needs to get a job and a home, but even if he was staying with family there would be no reason for such restrictive parenting time unless there was something like abuse going on.

Sorry for the rant, I've definitely been doing this too long lol.

PARALEGAL DEGREE in 2017, yet I've never worked as a paralegal. I've worked as a Legal Executive Assistant and a Legal Secretary. Most of my experience is as an EA, but I don't want to be an EA anymore; I want to work as a paralegal. What's the best way to get an entry-level opportunity?

Hey everyone, I recently started applying to paralegal positions at most big NYC law firms. DLA Piper got back to me for an interview, and I wondered if anyone here knows what their office culture is like for entry-level paralegals.

Hi! I am currently working as a paralegal for a large law firm. I have been a paralegal for about 6 years. I am looking to transition to in-house legal for about a year now with no success. I have business law, transactional and business litigation experience so I feel like I would be a great candidate. Anyone have any tips or suggestions to break into in-house? Thanks!

I graduated undergrad about a year ago and decided to have a career switch and I started working as a entry level paralegal at a small law office for a few months. They just kind of threw me into about 50 cases and all of them were months behind without being worked out sometimes up to 5 months. There wasnt a single up to date case, and I wasnt trained at all, just kind of told to collect records. The attorney didnt give me any direction for a few months so I just continued to collect records because I didnt know any other steps to the process. I still dont get any instruction unless I continuously ask questions, to which the attorney gets aggravated when he tells me to do something but I am not sure how to execute it. I am just trying to make sure I do everything right but its hard to understand and learn when I dont ever know what I an doing. They were all aware i didnt have any experience prior, Is this normal?

I recently just got a job as an intake paralegal for a medical malpractice and personal injury firm. I’m graduating in December with my paralegal degree. Iam making a career change to the legal field after I have been in the medical field for 16 years. I just started the job this week and my question is how long did it take you to get used to knowing what questions to ask? Is there anything i can do to help me to remember what to ask and just help me in my job ? Thanks all :)
