3:01 its giving... patrick bateman regardless, enjoyed the video. you're very correct about the trains in Chicago. lived there for a few years before 2020, moved away and moved back last year. its definitely worse. LL ugh
its Lawyers in China and the United States are similar in daily life. I wonder if you usually go to other cities on business? Can an Illinois lawyer's license appear in a California court?
I don't usually travel for mine, and a lot can be done from home. To your question, some attorneys can appear in other states if they get a special permission to do so, and it's usually only for a limited scope. Thanks for watching!
You might note that I spend more time talking about all things besides the work itself lol which was mostly unintentional but content about reading and emailing can only get so enthralling And thank you, the move went well and we're settling in nicely!
@@swatsullivan the bigger challenge is I can't go into detailed specifics in my content thanks to privacy concerns. I will try doing a video soon talking more about my day to day tasks and generalized examples now that I'm well into my 2nd year full time. We'll see how that one does!
hello please I am a small seller on eBay, and I have been sued by a company that claims I should pay $1000. I would like guidance on what steps I should take to address this situation and find a resolution
There's no such price set by government from candy at neighbors groceries store to $billion dollar of buildings or estates( whatever they are). You can always negotiate the price(or %) for anything. The price is set by supply and demand in the market of economy.
I am planning on getting an LLB along with an LLM in my home country within the next 5 years. By the time I finish, I will be 28. After that my plan is to move to Chicago in order to pursue a trainee or intership position as a lawyer, and ultimately staying in the US. I live in Greece, any ideas as to how this plan could be feasible?
Would you recommend getting a real estate license for real estate big law? I’m applying to law schools this fall and am considering pursuing this once I get my acceptances. Thanks for all the info you provide on this channel!
I can't imagine having the license would hurt, and closing a couple transactions as an agent would probably be decent experience, but it's by no means necessary. At worst, it shows some interest in real estate in general. Having my license probably marginally helped me during interviews (but I also had other real estate experience, namely property management at a large real estate company with a fairly strong local reputation and an internship at a commercial real estate law firm). And no problem! Thanks for watching!
It's a lot of work, no doubt. I think a lot of it depends on your practice area and specific team, but it's definitely not for everyone. The average career length in big law is pretty short since it can get exhausting.
@@Jonathan_D12 best of luck! I'd recommend reaching out to attorneys in your area (in practice areas you might be interested in) and letting them know you're applying to law school. Many of them will be happy to meet with you.
@@agent4skin that's generally an exaggeration. There are times where I'll have a wild schedule and need to cancel other things. But it's far from every week. Every firm / team is a bit different though.
I typically work 7 days a week, and I didn't have any major transactions at the time. Also, this was 7 hours billed, not worked. And leisurely is a word lol
There are nice things about it, don't get me wrong. Just as there are plenty of silly things about Houston. But I've been quite happy with the move thus far!

You will be blown away when you try real "Tacos" In Houston my man.... 🤣 Great video. Thanks for sharing.
I have already enjoyed some fresh Houston tacos and am excited for more 🌮
TIK, I see a man of class there. If thats a correct phrase. Probably a lawyer who wanted to be a historian, just like me.
Lol you wouldn't be too far off. Though I never planned on a proper career in history. But I have always enjoyed it and will continue studying it.
Love this! I like the cheesiness 🤣 More of this kind of video please! New subscribers here
Thank you! 😅
I've heard corporate law is too much in terms of work/life balance. your thoughts / experience?
It's a lot of work, no doubt. I think a lot of it depends on your practice area and specific team, but it's definitely not for everyone. The average career length in big law is pretty short since it can get exhausting.
@@JackDuffley Thanks for the reply! Applying for law school for Fall 2024, so I'm trying to do as much research as possible about the different areas!

Hi Jack Mother Father God r here in person 😊
I call malarkey. Big law at 7 hours? What firm is this? I’m an attorney in a medium market and I know no one having the leisurely day you’re having.
I typically work 7 days a week, and I didn't have any major transactions at the time. Also, this was 7 hours billed, not worked. And leisurely is a word lol
Billables!!!
Many!
They should make a movie about your life 😎
It would involve a lot of e-mails
What??? Lawyers don’t wear suits for work??😱
We're a pretty casual office, and I'm in a transactional practice where I never go to court. So no suits the vast majority of the time.
@@JackDuffley yeah, I almost never wear a suit. But I started that trend about 10 years ago in my firm

Houston is a great city! Chicago sucks, don’t blame you for wanting to leave.
There are nice things about it, don't get me wrong. Just as there are plenty of silly things about Houston. But I've been quite happy with the move thus far!
Just wait until you have kids.... you'll have to film another video.
Lol I'm already running a solo practice now so I'm due for an updated day in the life.
Chicago used to be a great city. Now it's SA on crack.
Woah you made a great decision to GTFO of Chicago.
Are you happy? Idk if law is right for me.
