Sterek Rival Lawyers AU

It's A (Court) Date

Imagine, high-class, Ivy League, hot-shot, attorney Derek comes back from New York to the family firm to take over as partners with his sister after his parents decide to step down. He may not be on the level of his mother yet, but he's cut his teeth against Wall Street wolves and ruthless white-collar sharks. Derek's more than proved himself, so he just can't fathom these small criminal court cases his family is making him take "before he's truly ready" to be a part of the family business.

Enter in his first case. Right out the gate, the state assigned defense is, not only late to court, but also arrives in a flurry of limbs and papers, tripping all over himself, and profusely apologizing to the room as a whole. "Sorry! Sorry! Car trouble!"

The guy is out of breath, tie crooked and hair a mess. It makes Derek wrinkle his nose at the unprofessionalism and the blatant disrespect to everyone's valuable time.

The presiding judge, the Honorable Ms. Lydia Martin, only sighs a heavy sigh, as if this sight is nothing new, and says "Mr. Stilinski, I suggest you don't let it happen again."

Derek is honestly getting annoyed by how easy this is going to be. He could've been doing literally anything else right about now rather than being here going against a common rent-a-lawyer with some Podunk community-college degree. The opening statement for the defense is laughably inept. Full of nervous stuttering, backtracking, running tangents, and babbling. He's still apologizing, trying to assure the jury that he's just having an off-day today.

It's embarrassing to watch.

Nonetheless, Derek goes through the motions, practiced and poised. Examines all the evidence, presenting times and dates, prior arrest records, the works.

During this time, Mr. Stilinski is frantically (and VERY LOUDLY) flitting through a cartoonishly large stack of papers and whispering to his client. Derek has to fight to grit his teeth through his presentation.

Finally, it's time for Mr. Stilinski to cross-examine Derek's client and, unbeknownst to him, the beginning of Derek's long, long spiral of madness for the rest of his career.

"Judge Martin, I would like to move to have this case thrown out."

"Oh?" asks Judge Martin. For some reason, there's an amused smirk, almost fond, tugging at her lips "On what grounds?"

A giddy, almost manic, grin takes over the defense attorney's face just then. "On the grounds that the prosecution's client is full of bullshit."

The judge rolls her eyes and an exasperated "Stiles," slips from her lips, seemingly against her will. (Derek's not really surprised by the familiarity between the two of them. With how often state-assigned lawyers are called to the courtroom on small cases, it wouldn't be too big of a leap to suggest they might be chummy.)

"Respectfully, of course." Mr. Stilinski--er Stiles?--winks back at her.

"Objection. Your honor, this is ridiculous."

"Overruled. Make your point, Stilinski."

"Mr. Davis says he saw my client at 12:30 P.M., on August 4th, attempting to take his back-right hubcap outside his apartment. Mr. Davis' apartment complex at that time, on that particular day, would have cast a huge shadow over the back lot as evidenced by the gaudy sundial-art-installation outside the courthouse. Meanwhile, my client's picture, when taken in for questioning, has a sunburn on the entire right side of his face. This would corroborate Mr. Lyle's story of walking home alone, down the upper, unshaded side of Elmore Street, during one of the hottest days of the year, for an hour straight. Also, the fact that Mr. Davis has no realistic idea how long it would actually take a person to steal a hubcap should be evidence enough."

"Uh-huh. And this wouldn't happen to be something you've ever had any expertise in, would it, counsel?"

"I plead the 5th."

And just like that, Derek's case is thrown out so quick, he's still reeling about it all the way home.

For the next two years, this becomes Derek's life. This man, this Stiles Stilinski, keeps showing up like a whirlwind and absolutely puts him in his paces.

Stiles, as he insists Derek call him, is a powerhouse. Relentless and unstoppable. That mouth can filibuster for literal hours (which, for those unfamiliar, is when someone legally cannot be forced to give up their time on the floor as long as they can keep talking), that brain quick as a whip, with a hunger for research, a mastery of the English language svelte enough to trip up even the most well-rehearsed lie, and an attention to detail like nothing Derek has ever witnessed before. It's like he knows every law inside and out. Lives it. Breathes it. It's like he had been raised on the law his whole life. Not only that, it's like Stiles enjoys it. Every case is a new game to get excited about.

All of it makes Derek's blood boil.

However, it's not always about losing to Stiles all the time, because, honestly, that might be less humiliating.

In truth, when faced against Stiles, Derek's bound to win about 60% of the time. Out of that 60%, only 5% of those wins actually feel earned. As for the other 55%?

He knows Stiles is letting him win.

Derek can't prove it, but he knows the asshole is holding back on purpose nearly half the time. Knowing that Stiles could have beaten him if he wanted to, but didn't, is somehow more frustrating than just losing.

He hates Stiles.

He hates that the guy is so chipper and playful all the damn time. He hates that Stiles could probably work at any firm he wanted, could make enough money to get a decent car that doesn't shit out all the time, could buy a proper-fitting suit, but instead CHOOSES to stay here "watching out for the little guy", as he so put it.

He hates that facing Stiles in court is the most challenged, the most motivated he's ever felt in his entire life. He hates that Stiles brings out in him the spark of passion and drive Derek had long thought had died. He hates that Stiles always tries to banter with him during recess or whenever they have to exchange evidence.

He hates finding out that Stiles only loses cases on purpose when his endless amounts of research points to the defendant actually being guilty of horrendous crimes, because Stiles is a good fucking person.

He hates Stiles' constant teasing and he hates that Stiles is somehow able to bring Derek down to his childish level to tease back. He hates how much he looks forward to court-dates with Stiles now. He hates being invited out by Stiles over and over to grab a bite together after a long day, as if Stiles hasn't been wiping the floor with him on this case for the last month. He hates it even more that he always accepts and that now they have their own designated booth at the diner across the street. Derek's so unbelievably frustrated, it makes him want to bite Stiles at the neck just to hear that smartass mouth squeal.

"Hey, I ever tell you I was thinking of quitting before you arrived?" Stiles asks one night as they're walking to their cars.

Derek's head immediately snaps to him at that. "What?"

Stiles smiles distantly at the thought. "Oh, yeah. Things had started feeling like being trapped in a cubicle, y'know? There wasn't any challenge in it anymore."

"What made you stay?"

"Well...you did. You were the first, serious competition I'd faced in a while. It wasn't a matter of winning just to win, anymore. Going against you always reminded me of the reason why it was important for me to win. It gave me stakes, because now there was an actual chance I could lose and an innocent person could go to jail. You, I don't know, kinda reignited my passion for fighting the good fight, I guess."

Derek can feel his heart thumping hard in his chest. He wants to say 'You did the same for me!' He wants to tell Stiles that he didn't think his life could ever be this fun or happy or messy or chaotic or exhilarating or challenging or fulfilling before coming to Beacon Hills.

But just as Derek goes to open his mouth to sing Stiles' praises, he instead finds himself roughly shoving him up against the Camaro and biting hungrily at that mouth and tongue that's been the bane of his existence. There's a surprised little squeak that Derek quickly swallows up, but it isn't long before they're both tearing at each others' clothes and fucking each other dirty in the backseat of Derek's car.

What's crazy is, after they get together, nothing in their careers really changes. The only difference is now they get to fuck each others' brains out after an intense battle in court (and the sound Stiles makes when Derek bites him is exactly what he always imagined it would sound like). They still face against each other on opposite sides in court. They still give it everything they got, no conceding even if they are dating now. Not to mention, Derek wouldn't dream of tempting Stiles over to his firm. Not when he knows Stiles is at his best staying where he's at.

The day Derek's family finally decides it's time for him to take over the firm with Laura is the best day of his and Stiles' lives.

Not only does Derek tell them he's declining, he hires Stiles as his attorney to negotiate terms against his entire family of well-seasoned lawyers.

The entire month-long negotiation results in Derek, not saying a single word, but absolutely beaming as he watches his boyfriend run circles around his mother, his father, his uncle, and both of his sisters on contracts. It's so unbelievably hot, they're banging on whatever flat surface they can get their hands on every time they leave the boardroom. There's even one very memorable blowjob in the empty hall outside the boardroom when Stiles somehow manages to get Peter to agree to a (most likely illegal) clause dictating the firm will pay Stiles a finder's fee for any pro-bono case Stiles takes on outside of Beacon Hills that strikes his fancy.

And, no one says it, but they all know Derek definitely, 100%, dragged his own firm through this negotiation just to show off how incredible Stiles is to his family and preen about it.

--

Fast-forward, Derek is going to be in the audience for the first time for one of Stiles' cases.

While waiting in the hall, Derek sees a familiar face from his New York days. The prosecution has hired the eighth best lawyer money can get, Jackson Whittemore. He's sporting a Rolex, sunglasses indoors, and the face of someone who thinks he's above literally every other person in town.

Well, at least until he sees Derek.

For some reason, Jackson seems to think Derek is all the way out in the middle of nowhere to 'watch a master at work' (which...well...is technically true...).

As Derek goes to sit in the audience, Jackson tells him in passing, "This'll be over so fast, probably won't even get a chance to learn the other guy's name."

Derek chuckles and says back, "Ooh, buddy, you have no idea."

Before Jackson can think more on that, a whirlwind of limbs and papers suddenly hurls through the doors.

Derek sits back, gets comfy, and waits eagerly for the show to begin.

My first moodboard. Hope you enjoy. AU based on a discussion with @casually-eat-my-soul (I suggest checking out their version). This was kind of like a divergence from that (the brain juices just started flowing).

What to do with an accounting degree?

There are a lot of things you can do with an accounting degree. With multiple career paths in public accounting and private industry. You can even start your own business or break into finance.

1. Public Accounting

If you join a large public accounting firm like one of the big four, you'll likely have three paths to choose from: (1) Audit, (2) Tax, and (3) Consulting.

Audit draws heavily on your knowledge of financial accounting. You'll fins yourself doing bank reconciliations, counting inventory, or reviewing depreciation of fixed assets. There's a lot of travel involved and you might find yourself traveling to a different client's office each week.

In tax you'll be using software to prepare clients tax returns and other filings. If you stick with it and get promoted, you'll eventually shift from tax compliance(preparing and submitting forms), to tax advising (proposing strategies to maximize your client's after tax income).

In consulting, there are a bunch of things that you can do. (1) Strategy consulting, (2) Risk management, (3) Technology consulting. You might provide guidance for business restructuring or help clients choose and implement software that will help them analyze their data.

Large public accounting firms like the big four, want their employees to have the highest accounting certification.

2. Private Industry

Whereas with public accounting, your working for an accounting with multiple clients, with private industry, you're working for a single company.

Staff Accountant: Making journal entries, balancing the bank account, or doing payroll

Cost Accountant: Tracking cost, analyzing profitability.

Internal Auditor: Safeguarding the company's assets, and looking for ways to improve the company's operational efficiency.

3. Accounting Firm

It helps if you have an accounting credential like the CPA. However, there are small accounting firms where no one is a CPA. They primarily handle bookkeeping and taxes for small businesses. As your firm grows, you might offer additional services like business evaluation or financial planning.

4. Finance jobs

Most of the students who majored in accounting, took jobs in investment banking.

You can also use your accounting degree to get hired as a financial analyst, credit analyst, or a budget analyst. These positions don't typically require you to have an accounting certification. However, they do require you to have strong knowledge with accounting.

5. Honorable Jobs

Accounts receivable, Accounts payable, Accounting clerk. You'd be overqualified if you have an accounting degree and pursued jobs like that.

You might also hear about forensic accounting. However, it is reserved for people with years of experience. If you're interested in that path, you might start a job in internal auditing.

Part-Time Employees’ Sick Leave Entitlements will be reduced with proposed changes to the Holidays Act

Written by Lois McLintock 

In June, the Minister for Workplace Relations and Safety, Brooke van Velden, announced the government’s plans to amend the Holidays Act 2003.

The Holidays Act 2003 (“the Act”) governs employee’s entitlements to annual and public holidays, sick leave, bereavement leave, and family violence leave. The Act has long been subject to criticism from both National and Labour governments, and legislation has been drafted in the past in the hope of amending the Act to ensure it is fit for purpose. The previous Labour government proposed a number of changes in 2023, however these were not enacted prior to last year’s election.

The main change proposed relates to sick leave. The government is proposing that a pro-rata system for sick leave be introduced, whereby entitlement to sick leave would be determined by how much an employee works. Currently, all employees are entitled to ten days of sick leave per year, regardless of how many hours they work per week. In fact, part-time employees who have more than one job are able to access ‘double sick leave’, whereby they receive ten days sick leave from each employer

Changes proposed would see part-time employees’ entitlement reduced on a pro-rata basis to reflect the fact that they do not work full-time which would provide some relief to employers, particularly small business owners. Exactly how much their entitlements would be reduced will be up for discussion during the consultation period in September this year when an ‘exposure draft’ of a Bill is expected.

An ‘exposure draft’ is a document not yet in its final form that is intended for discussion and open to amendment. The government is seeking feedback through targeted consultation from a range of stakeholders who will eventually be bound by the Act; in particular those business owners that do not just employ full-time staff.

You can find more detailed information about proposed changes on the Ministry for Business, Innovation and Employment website here https://www.mbie.govt.nz/business-and-employment/employment-and-skills/employment-legislation-reviews/holidays-act-reform

The Importance of Time Tracking in Legal Practice

Efficient time tracking is not just about billing clients accurately; it also helps law firms and legal professionals understand how they are allocating their time and resources. In a fast-paced legal environment, where multiple cases and clients demand attention simultaneously, having a clear overview of where time is being spent is invaluable.

Time tracking allows legal professionals to identify areas where they may be spending too much or too little time, enabling them to make informed decisions about resource allocation and workflow optimization. For example, if a particular type of case consistently requires more time than anticipated, the firm can adjust its pricing strategy or allocate additional resources to handle similar cases more efficiently in the future.

Moreover, time tracking plays a crucial role in assessing the profitability of different practice areas or types of cases. By analyzing time tracking data, law firms can identify which types of cases or clients are the most profitable and focus their marketing and business development efforts accordingly.

Overcoming Challenges in Legal Time Tracking

While the benefits of time tracking are clear, implementing effective time tracking processes in a legal setting comes with its own set of challenges. One common challenge is ensuring that all billable hours are accurately recorded, especially for tasks that may not be directly related to specific client matters, such as administrative work or business development activities.

Another challenge is ensuring that time tracking practices are consistent across the firm. Different lawyers may have different habits or preferences when it comes to tracking their time, leading to inconsistencies in reporting and billing. Implementing standardized time tracking procedures and providing training and support to lawyers and staff can help address this issue.

Additionally, legal time tracking software must be user-friendly and intuitive to encourage widespread adoption among legal professionals. Complex or cumbersome time tracking tools may be met with resistance from lawyers and staff, undermining the effectiveness of the time tracking process.

Leveraging Legal Time Tracking Software for Success

To maximize the benefits of time tracking, law firms should invest in comprehensive legal time tracking software that is specifically designed to meet the unique needs of legal professionals. This includes features such as:

Case Management Integration: Seamless integration with case management systems allows for automatic synchronization of case data and time tracking information, reducing the need for manual data entry and minimizing errors.

Customizable Billing Rates: Legal time tracking software should allow firms to set customizable billing rates for different types of work or different clients, ensuring that billing is fair and accurate.

Comprehensive Reporting: Robust reporting capabilities enable firms to generate detailed reports on billable hours, expenses, and client matters, providing valuable insights into firm performance and profitability.

Realizing the Benefits of Legal Time Tracking Software

By overcoming the challenges associated with time tracking and leveraging the capabilities of legal time tracking software, law firms can realize a range of benefits, including:

Improved Efficiency: Automated time tracking processes streamline administrative tasks and free up time for legal professionals to focus on billable work, increasing overall efficiency and productivity.

Enhanced Client Satisfaction: Accurate and transparent billing practices build trust and credibility with clients, leading to increased satisfaction and loyalty.

Better Decision-Making: Data-driven insights from time tracking reports enable firms to make informed decisions about resource allocation, pricing strategies, and business development efforts, ultimately leading to improved profitability and growth.

Conclusion

In conclusion, legal time tracking software plays a crucial role in modern legal practice management, enabling law firms to accurately track billable hours, optimize resource allocation, and ensure compliance with client requirements and industry regulations. By investing in comprehensive time tracking solutions and overcoming common challenges associated with time tracking, law firms can unlock new levels of efficiency, profitability, and client satisfaction.

I've seen a lot of posts about Batman using his Bruce Wayne alter ego for the good of Gotham: job programs for felons released from prison, orphanages, charities, high wages for his employees, ethical business practices...the legendary post where Bruce Wayne goes to Wal-Mart.

Thus far I've never personally seen anybody really dig into the persona of Bruce Wayne the Billionaire Playboy. A handsome, rich, powerful man who always is seen at fancy galas, art openings, charity dinners, and wild parties with at least one beautiful woman on his arm.

We know Bruce Wayne is the mask, and its Batman who has a...complex love life, depending on the iteration we're talking about. Talia, Catwoman, sometimes Wonder Woman.

Bruce Wayne's dates, on the other hand, are all "normal" people. Maybe they're an aspiring actress, a supermodel, a prima ballerina, the occasional reporter...and every time there's that bit of nervousness at the start.

Sure everyone knows Bruce Wayne. Everyone knows the story with him. Sometimes his wilder parties make the news, but there's never really been anything nasty reported about him. Never...allegations. But he's a billionaire. He's one of the most powerful people in the whole city, nevermind the country. If he did have some skeletons in his closet. Well. Men with power have a way of making those kinds of stories go away, don't they?

As time goes on the Date's fears dissipate pretty quickly. Bruce Wayne is nothing but polite, kind, and at times charmingly awkward in an 'raised by his butler in a mansion' kind of way with his dates. Some of them can tell he's holding back, of course. Maybe the more perceptive Dates notice he's smarter than he lets on - playing the himbo or hamming up the "know-nothing rich boy" act to the cameras or some of his wealthy peers.

He also listens, is the thing. He's always listening to what they're saying, is interested in hearing about their careers, their hobbies, their lives. Really listens, too. Might refer to something a Date said weeks later off-hand. Buy out the whole museum for a private dinner date with a famous painting from an obscure artist they like, or a private performance with another's favorite band.

He has anecdotes and funny stories for days that somehow says very little about his personal life. The Dates know he has kids (it's practically a running gag in the news that Bruce Wayne has adopted yet another orphan) and maybe she might spot one of them at the mansion, but Bruce seems very keen to shelter them from any intense spotlight and scrutiny, and they all seem happy if a bit weird like him.

Eventually, there's drifting. He's a very busy man, with a very busy schedule. On more than on occasion his nice old butler will call and extend apologies that Mr. Wayne will not be able to make it this evening. Sometimes it's virtually impossible to get a hold of him over the phone. After a while they stop trying. None of them feel quite surprised by that. In the end, it just doesn't work. Sure, he's a little distant and doesn't make himself emotionally available...but he's not a bad person.

Especially when the so-called "exes" of Bruce Wayne start networking. Gotham isn't a small city, but the social circles Bruce Wayne travels in aren't as big. They don't quite gossip or complain about him. More like...who else would get it?

(I touched his side once and he winced...like he'd been hurt real bad there. He laughed and said it was tackle polo. How does that even-?)

(Somehow, after two dates, he saw right through me and listened while I told him what that casting director tried to do. He nodded, gave me the contact details of a law firm, and said not to worry about the legal fees.)

(I don't know for sure it was him, but it can't be a coincidence that my building got bought out from under my shitty landlord and we were all able to buy our apartments under market value.)

(He got my brother in the best rehab program in the city after his relapse. It probably saved his life. We'd stopped dating months ago, I still don't know how he found out.)

(He gave me a card with a phone number and told me that if I was ever in trouble to call it. Said one of his cars would come to pick me up, any time, any place, no questions asked. The one time I did have to use it after a bad party, it was Alfred.)

I think any tabloid reporter digging around for salacious stories or dirt about Bruce Wayne's love life would be completely and politely stonewalled when they try asking his former Dates. Even when money is offered. Every single one of them.
