shoot for an ADA spot, and that I have a side practice


this is a super great idea, used by many. you get a steady paycheck to cover the bills, plus state retirement, and depending on your willingness to work hard outside, can make some really good money in your side practice.

problem is, DA and ADA jobs are very political, so you risk losing the job every 4 years if someone new comes in who puts in his guys, or you have to suck up alot. Also, frequently it requires connections to get the job in the first place.

you also run into alot of ADAs who do nothing outside, and just work the minimum at the DAs office.

Another problem you could run into as an ADA is being tied up to a chair in a room full of explosives where a guy in a suit has to decide to save you or the district attorney.
