บท 3: Law Firms
Because he didn't buy a car, Martin simply rubbed Harvey Spector's luxury Lincoln back to his Manhattan law firm.
After dealing with the greetings and congratulations from his colleagues along the way, Martin finally returned to his small office, dunked a whole bottle of water, pulled the tie around his neck and slumped on the office chair, and finally gave a long cry. tone.
The world's first trial, finally won!
In his previous life, Martin was just a little assistant who wanted to be a lawyer. Like Zhang Wei in "Love Apartment", his main job every day was to organize materials.
However, the difference is that Zhang Wei is engraving a CD, and Martin is playing with a USB flash drive.
Who knows how can there be so many documents in one case!
After being reborn into this world and becoming a foreign devil, Martin still hopes to be an upright barrister. One is to pursue the dream of his previous life, and the other is that the income of American lawyers is indeed too high.
Perhaps thanks to the fusion of souls after crossing, Martin's memory can be said to be a heaven-defying existence. The legal provisions that could not be recited in his previous life can't be forgotten at a glance, which also made him successful after graduating from high school at the age of 16. Studied history at Harvard.
Yep, history majors.
There is no law or medicine at the undergraduate level of American universities, and you must read other reliable majors before you can apply after graduation.
Martin successfully entered Harvard Law School with a GPA (Grade Point Average) of 3.9 and a LAST (Law Admissions Qualification Test) of 175. He studied for three years and got a JD degree, and then read for two years and successfully obtained JSD (Doctor of Jurisprudence).
With his excellent education and experience as an intern in a United Nations legal agency, Martin finally got an offer from the law firm Pearson & Hardman in "Suits" in his previous life.
This firm is one of the four most powerful law firms in the United States. All lawyers and paralegals in it are graduates of Harvard Law School. More than 40 of the top 500 companies in the United States are their clients, and all their business Legal support for transactions.
If you can enter this firm, in addition to proving that you are the top 0.01% of lawyers, you can also earn a lot of money.
Under normal circumstances, a Harvard-graduated JD paralegal can earn an annual salary of $180,000, while a JSD licensed lawyer can earn $250,000.
This is the minimum wage set by the Bar Association.
At Pearson & Hardman, Martin's starting salary is $330,000 a year, with an annual increase of $30,000.
In other words, by next year, Martin's annual salary will be 360,000.
This does not include consulting fees.
Martin is a fresh graduate. The consultation fee is the minimum $400 per hour stipulated by the Lawyers Association. This money belongs to the lawyer himself.
This made him look forward to his first payday.
Just as Martin was planning whether his first paycheck would be a Porsche 911 or a Challenger, a tall, dark figure appeared at the door of his office.
"A period of exhaustion after tension?"
Martin reacted, turned his head and saw Jessica Pearson, the boss of the office, leaning against the glass of the office door, looking at him with a smile.
This is the founding partner, after whom the firm of Pearson Hardman is named.
Martin jumped up quickly and greeted him while closing the loose tie around his neck: "Ms. Pearson, why did you come here in person? I should have gone to your office."
"You can call me Jessica."
Jessica Pearson smiled and shook her head, walked in and sat down on the sofa: "The first time I saw Harvey compliment a newcomer, that's enough to make me come here."
"Harvey is full of praise for me?" Martin, who was pouring water for the big boss, was stunned: "Are you serious?"
Although he has only been in the company for three days, Martin, who has watched Suits, knows that Harvey has always been proud, and it is basically impossible for him to praise him, let alone full of praise.
Jessica took the water from Martin, put it on the table and nodded and said, "Trust me Martin, I have worked with him for more than ten years, and you are the only newcomer who can get A+ in his hands."
"Can you give me the audit sheet? I want to frame it and sleep with it at night so I can have a good dream."
Martin made a casual joke, then sat on the sofa and asked with a smile, "Jessica, what's the matter here?"
Jessica nodded: "New licensed lawyers need a six-month investigation period before they can contact clients, but Harvey said that you are qualified, and I decided to assign some clients to you as appropriate. Get ready, you will be busy soon. already."
Martin nodded.
Being a lawyer and being a salesman have one thing in common, that is, both newcomers need to find clients by themselves. Although the company will allocate some, but it is a tasteless rib that others do not want or are too busy to do, and there is no oil or water.
If you really want to make money, you still have to find those rich and big companies yourself.
Martin, who worked in a law firm in his previous life, was mentally prepared for this.
"There is still an office." Jessica said while looking left and right: "You have only been here for a few days, and the office environment has not yet had time to decorate it. It looks a bit shabby now. Remember to go to the administration department to pick a few paintings and arrange them, although they are all Some of the newcomers' works are also acquired from galleries, or to show your own artistic taste to customers..."
A big office is a big office. Although my small office in my previous life also had paintings on it, those were all wholesale prints. How could the newcomers' works bought back by a gallery be stylish.
"By the way, there is also the team configuration."
When Jessica thought about what to say, Martin made an appearance of listening intently.
"According to the company's regulations, all formal lawyers must have a paralegal assistant. Now the company's assistants are not enough, and Harvey doesn't have any, so the company wants you two to go to Harvard to recruit a group of JDs back, so you can choose what you think is suitable. 's assistant, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com and secretary, you can directly mention the candidates you want, if not..."
At Pearson Hardman, all paralegals are new lawyers who graduated from Harvard Law School, and only need to spend two years in the position of paralegal because of insufficient qualifications.
Martin has a Juris Doctor, so he skipped the paralegal stage when he entered the firm.
The secretary does not have the requirement of a lawyer's degree, but he must also have a bachelor's degree from an Ivy League university.
After all, the secretary working in this firm also has a high salary, and his ability must keep up with the lawyers who graduated from Harvard.
Hearing this request, Martin nodded thoughtfully.
Picking an assistant so quickly, could it be that the plot of "Suits" is about to begin?
Do you want to take the protagonist Michael Ross over?
Forget it, I'm just a newbie now, and I'm not qualified to accept the protagonist, so let the big guy Harvey train the newcomer.
As for the secretary...
Thinking of this, Martin suddenly had an idea: "Jessica, can you transfer Rachel to be my secretary?"
"Rachel? Rachel Zane?"
Jessica frowned, and then suddenly realized: "You have a good eye, Rachel is the best clerk in our class, although she has no legal education background, but no one can match her in sorting out legal documents, I will talk to her. talking about..."
Hearing this, Martin was overjoyed.
You must know that in the previous life, the actress of the role of Rachel captured the heart of the British prince and successfully became a duchess.
This is enough to prove Rachel's charm.
Martin couldn't help but think about the Duchess being his secretary.
