Doc Review That Doesn't Make You Feel Dirty?

Post by Anonymous User » Thu May 09, 2019 7:48 pm

What are some doc review/legal temp jobs that don't make you feel dirty? I've spoken with a few legal temp agencies, and when I mention that I'm interested in plaintiff-side work (employment/labor law in particular), they've either wanted to steer me into doing defense work anyway, or had essentially no positions in this area. I'm open to other areas outside of employment/labor law, but I'm wondering which areas are most likely to have legal temp work that don't work directly against plaintiff-side work.

Thanks.

Litigation where one big company is suing another big company (IP comes to mind)? Government investigations (which may make you feel dirty, but in a different way)?

Most corporate litigation involves one deep-pocketed big company taking on another deep-pocketed big company. I think OP would be safe with anything aside from labor/employment, regulatory, and white collar, really. General commercial lit isn't any more "dirty" than IP lit.
