|
Date: November 15th, 2017 4:52 PM Author: judgmental domesticated tanning salon I'm less than a year in so I'm not too worried about it. basically my caseload ended up being much more contingency heavy than I expected – last month I billed 0.2 hours to actual paying clients. Also, fronting litigation costs is much more expensive than I had considered. Not even talking about experts, just in terms of filing fees, depositions, etc.
In big law you never really worry about that because it's just magically taken care of, client is always paying. It's very different once you switch sides |
|
Date: November 15th, 2017 4:56 PM Author: flickering umber point ok, this makes sense. yeah the runway on contingency fee means you have to prepare to not make anything for up to a year.
still, even assigning a conservative dollar value to your active cases, you probably have a decent pipeline of money that will start coming in from your contingency matters |
|
Date: November 15th, 2017 4:59 PM Author: judgmental domesticated tanning salon It's hard to say. One thing I've learned is that big law gives you a skewed idea of how good the average plaintiffs case is because you only get hired to defend the good cases.
But yes, one reason I'm not flipping out is the assumed value of the cases that just haven't gone to judgment yet. They can't all be $0. |
