I just spent he weekend with one of my BFFs from high school. She graduated from a third (or fourth?) tier law school in 2009. It took her a year to find a job and she now works in disability law. She recieves no benefits and if she loses the case the firm does not get paid-even if she has spent a year on the case. Is it not standard practice for lawyers to get some benefits?? In veterinary medicine it is well known that you should get your CE, most or all of your health insurance, AVMA dues, vacation, liability insurance paid for. I also get a 401 K and disability insurance (my boss is pretty generous, I also can go anywhere for CE-even europe). It just blows my mind that she gets nothing especially having a professioonal degree. And to spend hours and hours on a case and get nothing. She spends many of her weekends working, reading over medical records (which this weekend I had to interpret some of the medical acronyms for her on the plane). Is this typical??
