Date: May 29th, 2013 6:14 PM Author: Boyish Spruce Home Potus there are some firms (a lot of firms?) that always just settle cases before they have to engage experts and shit. and if it won't settle they just drop the case. but it's pretty rare for a valid case not to settle man. yeah maybe you won't get as much, or even nearly as much, as if you took the case further but you also avoid all the risks.

Date: May 29th, 2013 9:58 PM Author: Mustard thriller property This. As long as your facts are decent and you write a decent complaint its almost auto-pilot to settlement.
I'll only need experts if we go to trial. |

Date: May 29th, 2013 9:58 PM Author: Mustard thriller property Unless the case is strong I have the client pay the filing fee and service of process fee.
Also if the client has no jerb then he qualifies for a fee waiver.
So far I've only fronted the filing fee for one client and I'm about to do it again. Both have strong cases and honestly even if I lose its worth the losing money since I'll learn a shitload. |

They're also not the slightest bit entrepreneurial, they love the comfort of working for the man even if it costs them dignity or even lives.
Sad state of the profession. Voluntarily do what OP does, or look down on OP while billing 2500 hours for 6 years, get fired, be where OP is involuntarily. |

Date: May 29th, 2013 11:43 PM Author: Pearly gay wizard Dont listen to these fucking faggots. I have literally supported a wife and two kids on this since 2008. A couple a pro tips though:
(1) I came from a huge firm doing "business litigation." You absolutely have to pay your fucking mor5gage so you need a baseline of hourly coming in to finance th end contingency shit. If you dont you will implode like my first firm did. The sad fact is that money started to roll in 36 months from the time the firm started, and we had broken up by then and hated each other and then were left fighting about fees. That sucked, but are fatal flaw was ignoring paying work in favo4 of contingency and th3n our families all starved. Do something where you can demand hourly or flat fee be it business lit, criminal, estate, etc;
(2) neve4 be solo. If you cannot find some dood, preferably older, who is willing to work out an agreement with you then you should just get out. You arent connected enough or liked enough to do this;
(3) always have a goddamn office that is decent, business cards of the highest quality and someone at said offic3 when you arent;
(4) dont pay a gaoddamn thing for offices. You should know some older asshole who owns a building or a long term lease who will trade out for minimal work in exchange for an office, conference room, internet, fax and phone. If he tries to jew you for more than 1k a month for that he is fucking you in the ass;
Continued in a sec due to fear of timeout

Date: May 29th, 2013 11:51 PM Author: Mustard thriller property Breh to wit:
1. Women dont like me so I have no family or wife. I just have me living in a shit apartment and not having much of a life so my expenses are low. I have enough saved that coasting for a year just trying to make this worth it not even a big deal.
2. I disagree. I dont want to be associated with anyone else at this point. I want this shit to be all my own doing. I have referrals and split fees with other lawyers but dont want to have any other faggot calling the shots in this shit
3. Fuck the office. It would be nice but what a waste of money. Id rather spend that on ads. I just have a virtual office and rent conference rooms by the hour and it tends to work fine. Also business cards are 1980's no one looks at that shit even when u give it out.. the internet is where its ad.. i literally was doing 80 bucks a month in google ads at one point and geting 4-5 calls a day
4. no one id pay 1k starting out for an office. taht is a total waste, put that money to online ads and its golden.. and lol just lol at worrrying abotu fax, phones and all that shit.. i dont even pay 10 bucks a month for all that shit.. do google voice and get a cell phone and fuck it |

Date: May 30th, 2013 12:03 AM Author: Pearly gay wizard I gave the advice, you can decide whether to take it. You clearly dont go to courtmucu or you would understand the cards thing.

Date: May 30th, 2013 12:11 AM Author: Nighttime provocative useless brakes site What sort of shit do they normally face? I can imagine suits by employees for unpaid wages or wrongful termination. Other shit, like random trips-and-falls, I would imagine are covered under insurance and get insurance defense firms retained for them. Just not sure what kind of business litigation the average small business is going to face, but I'm interested in this. Would be a good way to parlay biglaw experience.

Date: May 29th, 2013 11:55 PM Author: Pearly gay wizard (5) in addition to your common work (estate criminal etc.) Develop a sophisticated main practice. This is huge because a lot of regular joe lawyers will not touch federal court. Learn how to do wage and hour, employment, fair housing, it doesnt fucking matter. Compete outside the common areas;
(6) try fucking cases. As many as you can, lose them all if you must. This still gets you massive cred. Something like 85% of lawyers never try a case. If you do you will always get referrals;
(7) winning a case is even better. Try to do that. And finally, and most importantly, while you are still a kid;
(8) never fucking ever let a client intimidate you or otherwise fuck with you on the bill or anything else. I dont car3 how scared you are of you r fuck up. I dont care if you are worried about a bar complaint. Client loses a case half the time they will try to fuck you. Never care. Ever. Treat it like that abusive litigation letter from opposing counsel. |

Date: May 30th, 2013 12:02 AM Author: Mustard thriller property we have really different practice areas breh cause most of this shit doesn tmatter.. i mean thats anotehr great thing about contingency.. since ppl arent paying any money up front they arent going to be even remotely demanding, i basically can get them to do anything
but agree about trying cases. that is the last thing i really need to get some experience in and even if i lost once i do it once it will make it so much easier and fuck man, juries are crazy so its not a bad bet |
