When dealing with a tough assignment, sometimes your best ally is the crochety old assistant on the 32nd floor -- for a couple tins of peanut brittle you can learn everything you need to know about the senior partners.

Sometimes what you say isn't nearly as important as how you say it -- choose a snazzy font for you memos and the senior associate probably won't notice that you have no idea what you are talking about.

Retrieving a poorly researched memo from a partner's office before he reads it usually requires a well trained team of operatives -- but in a pinch Andy the Developmentally Challenged Mailroom Guy and Juanita from the cleaning staff may have to do.

Some people will tell you that only secretaries should spend time color coordinating post-it notes. Those people are idiots. Not only will your secretary take five times as long completing the assignment as you, she will probably end up putting a purple tab on a blue citation and blow the whole case. Instead, pick the most desperate female paralegal, buy her a coffee and hint that the project is going straight to the desk of the hot single partner in the corner office. Not only will the project get done fast, it will get done right.

people are far more likely no notice what time you LEAVE for the day than what time you arrive in the morning. if you know you can't bill more than 7 or 8 hours in a day, it's best to come in around 11am, make an excuse about your alarm clock, and then leave at 7pm. you'll look far more productive than the go-getter SA who got to work at 8am and left at 6

obviously you'd know the situation better than I, but unless its something really egregious (like staying past 8pm every night for 2 weeks to write a 5 page memo), I doubt that's a huge deal. My firm and I've heard others prefer summers take their time and be thorough; better to take too long and do a decent job then to rush and screw up. As long as they're not missing deadlines. Its not like summers associate time is truly billed.

My name is Anthony Ciolli. I used to be a UPenn grad with a job offer, till...*man on phone*: "a lawsuit has been file against you, you've been served." When you're sued, you've got nothing -- no cash, no credit, no job history. You're stuck in whatever city hasn't heard of you and will offer you a job. You do whatever work comes your way, you rely on ANYONE who's still talking to you. An online board full of racist law students and lawyers. An old friend who used to live in his mom's basement. Family too...IF you're desperate. Bottom line: as long as you're being sued, you're not going anywhere.
