I just wanted to gather practical advice on how to move forward from here.

Thanks for all the responses so far.

I read your point about the potential backlash, but I'm also shocked to read your apprehension when you are merely exercising your contractual rights. If you can't even speak up for yourself, how can you speak up for your clients?

Any firm hiring now?

then put it in writing to them la

any issues just nego first

cannot settle then go tadm

dont post about it online with identifying details

dont sue for your salary in lieu

this is why lawyers shouldnt act for themselves. client owe/owed money they know what to do. ownself owe/owed money they kalang kabok

the funniest kinds are the divorce/poha ones. for client they can summon the dragon the tiger all. then the very same ones kena cheated on or stalked/harassed they curl up one corner and cry

malu ttm

This made my day.
You’re right whoever you’re.
Esp divorce for the male lawyer. Sad but true.
Doesn’t affect female lawyers as much. Men seems to be more emotionally affected

Don’t think if you’re a female litigator you’ll sit one corner and cry
Doesn’t work this way.
Female lawyers don’t behave like that.
Maybe only male lawyers.
