Life as a Lawyer...

For those considering law school, be careful to remember that e-mails like these pop into your inbox from time to time once you take the plunge! Of course, your mileage may vary...

Hello Craig,

I hope all is well. As you can see, I have attached a copy of the draft with my proposed changes. I think it prudent to review the material as soon as possible. I believe there is a case in the 2nd Circuit that is on point, which is to say that it presents factual circumstances completely supporting our position. I believe the case name starts with an S--Smith, Swift, or something like that. I hope that helps your search. I need this draft first thing Monday morning at 9 AM.

On a lighter note, I understand that your family is visiting this weekend. I hope you have a great weekend, and don't work too hard.

PS - Now that I think of it, the case may not start with S. Actually, you might want to broaden your search to the 3d, 4th, 5th and 6th Circuits.

  2. Apparently the financial sector isn't much better. Here's a cartoon illustrating probably the same kind of exchange that occurs in a law firm:

    I say "probably" because I'm still a bright-eyed and naive law student who thinks this stuff won't happen to him.
