A lawyer who has been at 3 firms in 5 years is looking for a good opportunity.

A lawyer who has been at three firms in five years is not a very good lawyer.

Actually it is 5 firms, with an average employment span of 3.2 years.

Also, 26/6 = 4.3. Not 3.

Then you must not know a lot of lawyers, because in private practice – especially in the Buffalo area – it’s completely within normal limits. I know at least 2 or 3 lawyers who have been in practice for about 5 years and have already worked at 3 firms.

Either way, it’s better than Lee’s “hack ‘n fraud”.

Let’s do the math… 6 firms in 26 years… averaging 3 years per firm…

That is a questionable career if I have ever seen one.

6 firms in 26 years is not excessive in any way. In any event, whether Alice “plays well with others” or not is certainly less of a character flaw than, say, hacking into your employer’s computer system to artificially inflate your customers’ credit scores for personal gain, and getting fired for it. Cantankerousness > fraud, IMHO.

Those are pretty much the same things I have heard.

The word is that Alice does not work and play well with others. People that know her don’t like her,
