ATTORNEY ADVERTISING.
Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

Unpopular opinion:

Working late is fine. But if you’re doing it all the time, then something is broken.

You’re understaffed. Or inefficient. Or taking on the wrong work. Or can’t delegate. Or don’t have boundaries.

Grinding isn’t a badge of honor. It’s a red flag.

I had this routine. For years. It took time to realize those long hours were a failure of planning and prioritization.

If your “workday” bleeds into the evening hours, it’s time to fix the system. Not your sleep schedule.

#attorney #wellness #worklife

Jeffrey Pomeranz

I left a job where I was miserable.


Everyone told me I was making a mistake.

Great salary. Prestigious role. Impressive from the outside.

But I dreaded Monday mornings. Worked weekends. Missed family dinners.

Leaving was the best decision I ever made. Not because the next job was perfect. But I learned what I wouldn’t tolerate.

Money can’t buy back time with your kids. Prestige doesn’t matter if you’re burned out.
Titles mean nothing if you hate the role.

Know your non-negotiables. Then honor them.

#attorney #career #worklife

Lawyer pro tip:


Schedule your workout like a client meeting.
Put it on your calendar. Treat it as non-negotiable.

Someone asks for that time? You’re unavailable.

I block the same time everyday for workouts. Never miss it.

Not because I’m disciplined. Because I scheduled it before anyone else could claim that hour.

Your health isn’t less important than a client call. Stop treating it that way.

Partner forwards an email with no instructions.

Here’s what they want:

Read everything
Review all attachments
Identify / discern the issues
Be ready to discuss within 24 hours

What they don’t want:

You asking what they want you to do with it.

The cc is the instruction.

#attorney #associates #law

Law associates are promoted when they:


Anticipate questions 
Stay calm when everything is on fire
Fix mistakes without getting defensive
Make partners look good in front of clients
Turnaround work (quickly) without sacrificing quality

Notice what’s not on the list:

Billable hours
Law school GPA
Impressing other associates

Partners promote people who make their lives easier. Not harder.

#attorney #law #associate

Law Firm vs. General Counsel:

Company receives demand letter.

Law Firm: Let’s research the claims, assess litigation risk, prepare comprehensive response strategy, draft multiple response options. 15-20 hours. $8,000-$10,000. 2 weeks.

GC: Low risk. AI-generated communication. Claims are weak. Small conpany. We can try and negotiate the number down. Recommend waiting to see if they hire an attorney. 30 minutes. Same day.

General Counsel knows which fires are real and which are smoke.

Saves the heavy artillery for actual battles.

#generalcounsel #law #litigation

Things partners notice that you think they don’t:


Level of proofreading before sending
Time it takes to respond to emails
How you respond to mistakes
Preparedness for meetings
Whether you take notes

Your technical skills will develop. Your professionalism is immediate.

Nobody is fired for missing a legal nuance in year one.

Can’t sake the same for sloppy work product or unresponsiveness.

#attorney #law #professionalism

You will make mistakes.

Lots of them.

Miss a deadline. Cite the wrong case. Misread a contract provision. Forget to cc someone important.

The difference between associates who survive and those who don’t:

How fast you catch the mistake
How quickly you own the mistake
How you prevent it from happening again

Partners expect mistakes. They don’t expect you to hide them or make excuses.

Own it. Fix it. Learn from it. And keep it moving. 

#attorney #associates #law

AI will handle routine legal work.

Document review. Contract summaries. Basic research.

Which means junior associates need new skills:

Strategic thinking
Project management
Business development
Cross-functional collaboration
Client relationship management

The lawyers who survive won’t be the fastest researches.

They’ll be the ones who can bring in business and manage complex relationships.

AI is eliminating the training ground. Time to start building some new skills.

#ai #law #attorney

Law Firm vs. General Counsel:

Employee handbook needs updating for new state laws.

Law Firm: Research all applicable employment laws, benchmark against industry standards, draft comprehensive policies, prepare manager training materials. 30-35 hours. $15,000-$18,000. 4-6 weeks.

General Counsel: I’ll update the sections affected by new laws using our existing template. Flag anything that needs outside counsel review. 6 hours. EOW.

Efficiency comes from knowing what actually changed.
