Date: January 21st, 2017 10:20 PM Author: Insecure spot I've been following Cali for a few years and I've always thought about going solo. I have been practicing seven years (2 private practice at mid sized firm and 5 as County attorney). In my current county attorney position I do a little bit of everything but mostly civil rights defense for jail and sheriff. I make 100k and will top out at 120k in a few years until my boss leaves in about 10 years (he makes 140k). Great benefits with pension. Easy job and only have about 20 hours a week of actual work so I'm bored as shit. I have no flexibility in my schedule so I sit at my desk with my thumb up my ass pretending to work a lot. My wife also makes 100k in a low cost of living area so I have enough money. I have good connections to area and have always been interested in going solo. Am I batshit crazy or what?

Date: January 21st, 2017 10:21 PM Author: Onyx generalized bond cumskin Why can't you keep your job and try to get your solo business off the ground in the remaining 20 hours? No one has to know. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3499602&forum_id=2#32428787) |

Date: January 21st, 2017 10:26 PM Author: Insecure spot I could set up my practice but it's a small community so everyone would know. Not to mention I can't by statute in my state perform any private work while I am employed by government. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3499602&forum_id=2#32428813) |

Date: January 21st, 2017 10:30 PM Author: Onyx generalized bond cumskin You don't have to perform work, but yeah, set it up. Create a website, start networking with local bar, pick a practice area and/or otherwise refine your lawyering. There's really no conflict until there's paid work.
It's hard to leave an easy gig like yours, and I wouldn't do it unless I could absolutely minimize the downside risk of the opportunity. |
