Kanye is just showing the world how scary it can be for a woman in Kim’s situation. Now imagine someone not having security, financial independence, or a way out.

It happened to other children. I can’t believe this is happening but it will finally put and end to this. I prayed for so long that no other victims existed. But I’m SO glad I spoke up. I spent so many years in pain. I still am.

@BourbonAndJokes I’m so sorry to hear that. I know how that feels. I had the same happen to me but so many victims began filing reports. It took 16 years for me. I hope you find a path to some healing—it’s never fully something one can heal but just know you are brave.

@DiscontentJacks And that’s the part that also makes me sad. People see this as a men vs. woman thing and it’s a mental health issue. This is the danger of being an artist, people only see you as that rather than a person that needs serious help.

So he contacted me saying he would come home — under the condition of me deleting all of my social media now. Nope. I’m gonna redo the house, going to focus harder on my career, and go to Sweden by the end of July. Next.

It blows my mind it’s always the clients that struggle the most that will forgo even eating well to pay back unsecured debts because it’s the “right thing.” Your interest rate was predatory. Your hospital bill should not have been that much. You deserve to live. My goodness.

If your attorney asks you for documents for months and you don’t comply—don’t bring them in three days before Christmas or a day before they are due. Three clients just did this. I seriously cannot deal right now.

I’m really tired of men justifying my husband abandoning me. If he was unhappy, he should have said something—not held my hand the day before and tell me he loved me. This is cruel. I did NOTHING to deserve this. NOTHING.

Stop telling bar examinees that they’re “smart” and can pass the bar. Just ask what you can do to help the process be less stressful financially or emotionally instead.

If you’re watching the USA v. England match tomorrow, please watch it on Telemundo instead. You might not understand anything but you’ll feel the excitement! Just got a couple of seconds of Fox and no wonder Americans don’t like soccer. The commentators are so boring.

I just posted a “steps to take after an accident” story and I had a NON-ATTORNEY give me a “heads up” as to what to use for evidence. Nothing he noted would be used as evidence. Stop mansplaining something you have zero clue about.

I tried to refer a couple of cases to a fellow attorney from the same law school. She was rude. She acted as though I was bothering her. Not once did she say thanks. Like—excuse me for bothering you with cases you can make $30k off of, your Majesty.

If you pass the bar the first time—-congratulations. Don’t text or call your friends to ask them how they did. If they reach out to you and tell you they didn’t pass, just offer any material you think would help. Good luck.

If your lawyer is generous enough to offer payment plans—don’t be the reason they stop. Payment plans make access to lawyers easier for others that are not as well off.

As a solo practitioner, my first year was trial and error. I finally hit a point where I’ve got a good flow, have support staff, get lots of referrals. The lessons and values you get from immigrant parents are with you every day. I am so lucky to have made it this far.

So, my doctor sent me to the ER. The paramedic goes off as to how he hates attorneys. I guess my eyes showed I was not pleased and then he goes, “car accident attorneys.” He thought I had family in law and I said, “I am an attorney.” Yikes.

@AngrierWHStaff If you know people in Florida, check on them. I know we are dumb, but a lot of us tried to close our businesses, wear masks, practice social distancing, and stayed home. I’m sitting at home right now wondering what’s going to happen next week. We are not ok.

Just a PSA from a personal injury attorney: To avoid getting in an accident, do not drink and drive. When you call AAA Tow to Go, a tow truck will arrive to transport you and your car to a safe place, within a 10 mile radius. Stay safe and Happy New Year!

Since becoming an attorney I have had some serious issues with exhaustion. I get my life was a little insane for awhile there. But, I’m at a point of just struggling to stay awake/have energy. Got checked by doc, all is okay. It’s likely work related. Any tips to overcome this?

@DrDenaGrayson I am immunocompromised and the state of Florida has not required for insurers to cover the test. Nearly, out of pocket, it would be nearly $1,500 with insurance. They aren’t testing anyone unless they are showing “extreme” signs. Many are walking about infected and spreading.

For those worried—becoming a lawyer is not a linear path. All of us ended up in different areas of law, firms, and had different goals. Please stop letting others tell you what works. Honestly, do your own research and follow what you feel is right.
