You don't want more than one big matter. |

I don't think the 2 new ones are that big and they will probably settle within 6 months. |

I can do 200+ for a few months, but then I need to break out for a while. |

Sounds like you might want to speak to the assigning partner and let him know your workload. While it's hard to turn down work, it's better for the partner to know if you might not be available when needed. |

You obviously have never practiced criminal law if you think that is a lot of cases.
I've already handled 350 cases so far this year. As a whole my office does over 20,000 cases a year.
Go back to watching your "Raising the Bar" marathon on netflix. |
