The Careers and Jobs news websiteWhat Does Your Staff REALLY Want ...
The 2005 "Best Places to Work" program study showed that, contrary to popular opinion, employee satisfaction didn't depend on salary. The most given answer as to what makes a company a great place to work is employee empowerment. And what constitutes employee empowerment? I believe it comes down to a few basic principles, the first of which is encouraging an ownership attitude. ENCOURAGE AN OWNERSHIP ATTITUDE I train staff in practical working skills for a law firm: ethics, professionalism, attorney/staff communication, hard skills, etc. At the beginning of many seminars, staff come [more...]

Improve Your Business By Sleeping
Full disclosure: I don’t get enough sleep and I do it erratically, sometimes working at 3 or 4 in the morning on a project. No one expects me to do this. I do it because I can and because it beats tossing and turning when I can’t sleep. Entrepreneurs have busy minds, thinking up ideas, scanning the horizons for new opportunities. It can be hard to shut down. But ample sleep is important for your own peace of mind and for your business. How much sleep is constantly debated but generally 7-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep is important for your average adult’s functioning. Continued lack of [more...]

Law School Scam?
I have a lot of new information to offer about my experiences the Law Clerk program, but today I’m going to write about something else. Lately I’ve been reading a family of blogs purporting to “expose the scam” that is legal education in America today. These bloggers, mostly disaffected recent law-school grads who can’t find a job, claim that because the American Bar Association continues to accredit more law schools, leading more people to take on six-figure debt to finance law degrees, the legal market has become saturated and law degrees are now worthless. This tirade seems to [more...]

Top Reasons to Become a Paralegal | Criminal Justice School Guide
Paralegals were recently listed as CNBC.com’s 7th Best Job in America for 2010- and we are not surprised! Here is a list of reasons why we feel becoming a paralegal is an excellent career choice for individuals of all types. Paralegals are in High Demand. As demand for legal services grows, so does the need for paralegal assistance. This is partially because law firms are able to cut costs by hiring paralegals instead of additional lawyers. Also, other types of organizations (insurance companies, real estate and title insurance firms, corporate legal department, and banks) are beginning [more...]

Daily Kos: Cheers and Jeers: Tuesday
History will be cruel because...gay adoption---and even gay marriage---is already a reality in many states and will happily spread across the country, gaining legal and social approval and making such statements as "children are not puppies" seem as outdated as "Blacks will destroy unit cohesion if the military tries desegregation." Verdict: History will be CRUEL. Mike Huckabee is smart enough to know better, but chooses instead to sell his soul to the lowest common teabagger. He'll always have a portrait hanging in the Arkansas statehouse, but other than that he'll mostly be a political [more...]
