Have you ever considered working in-house as an LNC in a law firm? Chelsea Harris, who made the shift from clinical nursing to in-housework, provides a detailed description of what this involves.
She is the only in-house LNC in her firm, with three other LNCs working remotely. While she works on her own cases, she also organizes the work done by the other LNCs. She is, in addition, actively involved in trial prep work, finding expert witnesses, and interacting directly with clients. Now that live trials are beginning again, she looks forward to attending some.
Although Chelsea wondered how she would adjust to the huge differences in environment between a clinical setting and a law office, she finds the quiet atmosphere refreshing. She’d worried about the lack of activity and the increased necessity to focus; she has adjusted well. And she doesn’t miss the 12-hour shifts.
For Chelsea, working in-house has many other positive aspects. She likes knowing how each of the attorneys in the firm want their reports to be written. She is also able to, on a weekly basis, make everyone in the firm of the responsibilities she has to accomplish. This means that they can see how their needs fit into her schedule of pre-existing work.
For those who would like to work in an in-house environment, she acknowledges that these situations, being highly desirable, get filled very quickly. She suggests that if you want this kind of work, you need to persist, as she did. And she’s never regretted it.
