April 30, 2021 at 11:13 AM Shares1 At my law school, becoming a Biglaw attorney or judicial clerk was touted as the ultimate success. Unfortunately, that meant that the vast majority of my classmates ended up with … sloppy seconds? I knew the idea of billing in six-minute increments for the rest of my legal career was tantamount to spooning out my eyes. Similarly, cite-checking or writing legal opinions was not living my best life. No thanks, I’ll pass. So, I chose the path of least resistance. Someone, hire me! For 11 years, I took the best jobs that I could. Now, I am creating them. I first had to tackle my untrue, preconceived notions, such as solo and small firm practice was not for me, and lawyers who hang their own shingles were not hireable elsewhere. It took some work, but I am so grateful that I found my way to entrepreneurship as a lawyer.
