“divorces”, breach of contract matters and a bit of commercial
collections. For example, demand and cease & desist letters. These
are not yet in litigation but might be headed there. Litigation :

through the closure which might include appearances at various
court proceedings or final hearing, collections or negotiations. We
do not do real estate, estate planning or securities. Over time our
relationships with clients often develop into more of an outside
general counsel role. Answer prospective client calls and
confidently provide information and plan to turn into a client.
Produce quality and thoughtful communications, legal documents and
pleadings. Through commitment and discipline actively work matters
and prospective clients to reach expectations, including adding
time daily and moving matters toward completion Salary and Bonuses:
