Unregistered | Aug 2022 called. Sg qualified. Salary 9-10k per month gross including bonus. Private practice. But very good hours. Average about 7hours billables a day. Late nights rare. How do I fare if I'm not inclined to work more hours for more money (for eg. going to mc or sc firms)? | |

Skills-wise not that much different from normal litigation/arbitration teams except you do a lot of document review. Your likely future roles will be in construction though, because construction teams pay a premium for construction-trained lawyers (and because nobody wants to do this field). Exit is usually to construction in-house firms also. |

Will be joining a construction law team soon but having second thoughts Any construction lawyers here can share how did u find your passion for this practice area? It seems very narrow and dry. Even a specialized area like IP seems marginally more interesting How does ur construction and built environment sector knowledge translate to exit ops? Whether to other practice areas like infrastructure n projects, or to inhouse industries? Hope to hear some thoughts! |

Therefore, intl firm lawyers need to hit less billable targets to earn the same amount as local b4 lawyers. This translates to more *hypothetical* down time for the intl firm lawyers. Of course, YMMV. |
