I have a friend who just graduated and works as a paralegal in a law firm. He is busy every day now. In addition to assisting his director in handling all kinds of case materials, he also works part-time as a driver for the director and occasionally attends some dinner parties to help him stop drinking. It is normal to work overtime every day. Weekends are often called back to meetings or lectures, and it is impossible to relax.
2. If you are a senior lawyer, what you have to do in the law firm every day may be to meet clients, provide legal advice to clients and have solutions, which are the core of handling practical work. Others, like some preliminary data processing, can be handed over to the assistant. Then we should constantly update our theoretical knowledge base. Lawyers should keep learning, keep up with national policies, and update some laws and regulations in time if they are updated.
3. All jobs are not easy, and the work of lawyers is no different from ordinary jobs. I also go to work, do what I should do today, then squeeze the subway or drive off work, and occasionally socialize and work overtime. It is similar to the daily work of other occupations.
So you asked if it would be easier to work in a law firm. There is really no way to say that he is relaxed or not. It depends on his working ability. Some people are very efficient, they can finish their work in time every day and have a lot of free time left, so they must feel very relaxed. If you ask an intern who just graduated, is it easy for him to work in a firm? Then he will tell you, it's not easy. Anyway, my friend thinks it's not easy at all.
