help wanted
I need a good paralegal, preferably with corporate/transactional skills, not litigation, for 3-6 months. Can be totally remote. Any of you law-firm types want to do a secondment?

I have a friend who is a lawyer malpractice lawyer. He's a super nice guy and I always have to remind myself what he does because it seems so different from his personality. I do see some pretty egregious stuff from lawyers from time to time, but nothing that I'd recommend him for. His stories are usually pretty jaw dropping.
I deal with the doctor malpractice lawyers a lot more often.

Real, valid legal malpractice cases are rare. To prove one, plaintiff has to prove it'd have enjoyed a positive result but for the negligence (prove the claimant would have won its case, in an instance of alleged litigation malpractice). Usually difficult.
The guys who do it that I've encountered aren't terribly discerning. I think most have to take a high volume of cases, many dubious, to keep the lights on. The business model seems to be shaking down the law firm to see if it'll cough up a settlement and if not, then getting a sleazy expert to state that the claimant definitely would have won the case but for the alleged negligence. It's so speculative, except in real cut and dry instances (truly egregious failures) the expert is basically fictionalizing a future which probably would not have occurred.
I refuse to refer people who want to make legal malpractice claims. I've sold enough of my soul for money. I can't get into that sewer for a referral fee.
ETA: I'm already doomed to hell for having been involved in med mal work long ago.

Yeah we have all been triple jabbed since September but Omicron could give two shits about that. Not sure where you've been but triple jabbed and sick is the new pierced and tattooed in New York.
Generally, all I have heard is mild sickness so far but I wouldn't go licking no toilet seats yet.
ETA, might want to work on getting that internet back up. All I have head about over the last three days is boosted people testing positive. Don't know how you've missed it.

Heard reports, but still don’t know anyone vaxxed suffering. But honestly, this is life now. The not vaxxed ain’t getting it. Maybe stuff will just fade like the 1918 pandemic, but either you go hermit, or Brave New World.

Most are asymptomatic to very mildly symptomatic. Boosted, whatever. If that's it, maybe this shit blows over.

I'm triple jabbed since August.
Still not feeling particularly good about this with baby in utero. Pregnant women tend to have really bad outcomes. (Might be behind a paywall, so open in incognito mode):
Quote:
Pregnant women with COVID are five times as likely as uninfected pregnant people to require intensive care and 22 times as likely to die. Infected moms are four times as likely to have a stillborn child.
...
At least 150,000 pregnant people have been diagnosed with COVID; more than 25,000 of them have been hospitalized, and 249 have died, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
